    Default Assumptions

    So, usually, making assumptions isn't the best thing to do.

    But sometimes it isn't all that bad.

    Thought I'd start this thread about making assumptions that are probably a safe bet.

    I'll start it off with this one...

    I'm assuming that when your artificial Christmas tree sheds more needles than a real tree it's probably about time for a new one.

    In the case of the artificial tree shedding needles, you have an indication of something which makes it more of an inference. Assumptions typically are conclusions drawn without proof or evidence to lead to the conclusion. I would have assumed you knew that.

    My head is bigger than my tree. Maybe I need a new head.

    I'll assume you folks won't totally derail/destroy the OP's thread with nonsense...

    Who am I kidding, of course you will. Carry on.

    I would assume that the sun is going to rise tomorrow...........but then again, the sun doesn't rise, we float around it. It appears that it rises.

    Gravity however, is always correct in that it will be effective in having anything that becomes loose, goes directly towards the center of our planets mass.

    I assume that gravity will remain to be constant, irregardless of my or anyone elses wishes.

    I'll assume Obama will do anything possible, to overturn the election.
