Trust
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
Trust is a dangerous syndrome that affects dumb people, whereby people forget that the all humans are bastards who have their own ambitions, agendas and personal searches for happiness which they will inevitably prioritise above other peoples needs and expectations. Investments of trust in other people are generally comparable in success to the maiden voyage of the Titanic, and can have varied lifespans (length of time before trust is withdrawn - usually prompted by the "trusted" member either sleeping with someone else or committing category A crimes such as watching nieghbours).
The theory that trust cannot be placed in anyone and that all relationships are conditional is beginning to become more widely accepted, as more and more screwups are being attributable to misplaced trust. All trust in humans with freewill is infact misplaced - like for example Uncyclopedia's crazy decision to trust other random members of the public to post their own shocking material on their website (many thanks Uncyclopedia).
[edit] History
Trust has been misplaced throughout history many times - from Julius Caesar's trust in his alleged friend Brutus, to the time on Family Guy when Stewie trusted Brian to pack his parachute.
Trust in inanimate objects is the only rationally acceptable form of trust (althought this is arguably trust in the objects inventor/creator - though to a lesser degree), unless of course the inanimate object is Russian-built or bought on Ebay.
[edit] Applications
Trust, throughout the ages has been invested in many different types of people - the most common being god (the most popular character in literary fiction). This type of extreme misplacement of trust is a common symption of the virus of religion, and a primary constituent of faith.
