Here's what i really hate about the Chocolate or Vanilla exercise:
It sets up an inescapable circular argument/logical trap. You can't possibly win. The Forum leader told me that the fastest way to make something disappear is to choose it, but that you can't choose it to make it go away. So:
It's not going away, because you didn't choose it. If you chose it just to make it go away, they can argue that it's not going away because you didn't authentically choose it. And if you actually did choose it, why are you complaining??? You chose it!!!
