If you're really honest about your willingness to be rational, it seems like this could be kind of depressing.
Could you expand on that? I'm not sure I follow...
Human beings are not very willing to be rational, and that includes those of us on Less Wrong.
If one bases one's self-esteem on one's rationality and one is a human who's frequently doing things that are not rational, being honest about one's state is depressing.
