Recently our daughter asked what she should do with some leftovers and both my wife and I said simultaneously “put that in the fridge until it molds and then throw it out.” It’s not good, but it’s true.

I think this is a really under-appreciated distinction. I feel like there are many things I enjoy in a way that would likely be ruined by becoming a scholar of them. Not that others shouldn’t study those things. But I definitely am better off not doing so.

“You did say ‘No chocolate’, right?”

“It’s not about ideology, it’s about looking like you have an ideology.” If only the Dems realized it’s easier to look sincere if in fact you are sincere.

I’m for it! I already have a bunch of people in my phone as “[first name] Neighbor” and also some as “[first name] Business” (“Cody Plumber”, “Tracy HVAC”, etc.)

This is getting … recursive? Inceptive?
