There's a pleasant irony here, too, since that's an overgeneralization.

Everyone overgeneralizes from extremely limited data. At least, I do.

Nice. You were joking, right? Sometimes it's hard to tell.

I don't think it's a joke. You have no choice but to overgeneralize from experience. If you limited yourself to only what you can support by direct observation, you would be catatonic or dead.
