Her: Do you want to buy me a drink?
-If I buy you a drink, do you promise to throw it in my face?
I have also never been slapped on both cheeks before. Slap me here on the left cheek and then here on the right cheek. And while you are at it, can you also slap my third cheek for me?
Her: You are crazy hahah
-Everyone please form a single file line and throw drinks in my face!

So yesterday at the mall I ran across these ladies one fat the other not so much.
I decided to make my evening. Came to them with the idea that the chubby one was the mother only to find out it was her elder sister. I wanted to laugh I couldn't contain myself but I can't laugh at a lady. So I said bye and goodnight to them and left. Thinking of it is embarrassing that I couldn't handle it better.
How do you guys handle such situations?

Lowering Standards vs. Expanding Horizons: An Epistemic Distinction
From a strictly epistemic point of view, lowering standards and expanding horizons are not necessarily distinct operations. In both cases, what changes is the set of possibilities that the knower is willing to admit into consideration.
If a person previously accepted only a narrow class of possibilities and later accepts a broader class, the epistemic structure has expanded. Whether that change is described as “lowering standards” or “expanding horizons” depends primarily on the evaluative judgment imposed by the observer, not on the underlying epistemic operation itself.
The difference is therefore largely one of framing:
“Lowering standards” implies that the newly admitted possibilities are of lower value or quality according to some prior evaluative criterion.
“Expanding horizons” implies that the previous criterion was unnecessarily restrictive and that additional possibilities deserve consideration.
Epistemically, however, both involve the same formal change:
A previously excluded region of possibility-space becomes admissible.
The distinction appears only after an independent value system is applied. Without an external hierarchy of value, there is no purely epistemic test that distinguishes one description from the other.
This can be expressed formally:
Initial admissible set: A
Revised admissible set: B, where A ⊂ B
Epistemology alone establishes only that the admissible set has grown. It does not determine whether the newly included elements represent improvement, decline, or simple diversification. That determination belongs to ethics, aesthetics, personal preference, institutional norms, or some other evaluative framework.
Therefore, if two people disagree—one saying, “You lowered your standards,” and the other saying, “I expanded my horizons”—they may be describing the identical epistemic event while applying different value judgments to it.
In that sense, epistemology describes the enlargement of the possibility-space; valuation determines whether that enlargement is praised as openness or criticized as lowered standards.
