Also scientific psychology (opposite of popular meme jogging) tells us that pure rationality is a myth - fictional concept of the mind. We are driven and motivated by hardwired, non-verbal heuristics , such as looks, status, health and beauty, which could be defined, at least for living beings, as youth + health/good genes markers (lack of any age or sickness related deformities).
Is there any estimation what percent of GDP and personal wealth has been spent amually on booze, hookers and status items? Including all the money spent to impress potential mates?)
The more appropriate meme instead of "rationality" would be "understanding" (and Joy instead of happiness) - I do, more or less, understand "how it works", so I could enjoy it occasionally, not too often to become a mere numb consumer. Read about Dorian Gray also.)
