While sharp and bitter and sui generis though the album's skittering drums and colorful electroloops were, they moved with the elegance typical of formalized, chart-friendly hip-hop, with extra cognitive dissonance courtesy of Future's mechanized astroboy vocals jolting the music into the realm of sci-fi surrealism and hence suggesting a level of repressed pain left implicit.

The cognitive dissonance in this should be obvious to most — men are rejecting an unconventional stand-up special because it takes men to task for rejecting anything that breaks with their idea of convention — but 'Nanette' also reinforces the importance of participating in conversations, even if it's just as a listener, when your 'welcomeness' is not a priority.

In our experience, we have had people transform their thinking over the course of an hour or two in our interviews, but it does take stacking up a lot of evidence and pointing out the cognitive dissonance folks are having: believing that they can make a million dollars doing this, while at the same time maxing out their credit cards.

Paradoxically, the relentless pep of other Korean girl groups, so eager to please, can strip songs of tension, and everything i becomes overly smooth; here, the same enthusiasm turns delightfully weird, almost an irritant, the source of cognitive dissonance, for if nine singers can hear such a racket and still confess their longings with a smile, something surreal must be going on.

The cognitive dissonance of a rock band, however strange they sound, exhorting you to love your work and follow the rules — and not because they're offering the usual anticonformist social critique, but because they really want you to love your work and follow the rules — disrupts one's expected sense of who these musicians are and how they want to be perceived.

In college, I took a class that centered on a book called "Obedience to Authority," which was trying to explain why an ordinary German would be a worker at a concentration camp, or why anyone would be part of a system that is so evil and corrosive, and how they deal with authority and whatever cognitive dissonance they need to have to do something so inhumane.

Shutterstock Friedrich recommends Influence: Science and Practice, by Robert Cialdini, "for the degree to which it challenges the cognitive dissonance essential to all of our lives": It's a whole bunch of really interesting studies about things, like: If the light turns green and you're behind a VW Bug or behind a Lexus, 100 percent of people say they'll honk at the Lexus first or it's equal.

It's this second "her" — as "Baddie Winkle" — that has earned this octogenarian 2.9 million Instagram followers, the allegiances of Nicole Richie and Miley Cyrus (the latter of whom befriended Winkle at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards), and a fandom of supporters and gawkers who can't get enough of the cognitive dissonance of a woman who looks like your grandmother wearing the kinds of things you feel too old to wear.

The cognitive dissonance of a picture of happy kids hanging from the fuel line and a picture of a kid with an inhaler glued to the gas pump would be a bit much — in the same way that a baby congratulating mom and dad for their taste in cigarettes is impossible once you have a label right there on the cigarette pack telling you that smoke destroys their tiny lungs.

It's this second "her" — as "Baddie Winkle" — that has earned this octogenarian 1.1 million Instagram followers, the allegiances of Nicole Richie and Miley Cyrus (who invited Winkle to join her at the MTV Video Music Awards this Sunday), and a fandom of supporters and gawkers who can't get enough of the cognitive dissonance of a woman who looks like your grandmother wearing the kinds of things you feel too old to wear.

"Hit 'Em High" Putting aside the cognitive dissonance of having rappers like Method Man (whose signature Wu Tang song opens with the series of inventive tortures he's going to inflict on you) and B-Real (from Cypress Hill, best known for their hit "How Could I Just Kill a Man" and prodigious references to marijuana) on a soundtrack for a family film, "Hit 'Em High" is fascinating because it was produced by Trackmasters, a hip-hop production team who collectively have seven gold and 20 platinum records to their names.

Reda: There's a certain cognitive dissonance among a lot of the regulators in Europe because on the one hand they are kind of upset about the fact there are so few European startups and they're wondering how we can better compete with the U.S., but at the same time they're putting in place laws that are targeted at the big U.S. tech giants but that actually end up hitting the domestic startups a lot harder because they have to comply with pretty strict regulations from the start that they're not equipped to actually deal with, and that often hampers their possibility to get funding.
