Sitting at a table in a coffeehouse or restaurant reading a paper conveys a type of knowledgeable worldliness that scrolling on one's phone simply does not, even if the contents are identical.

I'll be fine, but I really wanted the Blue Jays to win for a lot of other people in my life, and that feels worse somehow.

It's hilarious that he scored a Spezza Jubilee Fine Jewelers level goal and no one saw it because he had the bad luck to do it on the one night in November everyone is busy.
