The ability to rationalize is amazing. I ordered a fourth of my favorite three quart pitchers because there was one in Amazon Warehose for a couple of bucks off. I'd wanted a fourth pitcher, but didn't really need one. Sitting here it dawned on me that I can stick it in the minifridge for a third drinking flavor option beyond the two I normally keep on hand. Genius!

Context is everything. ‘Fuck you, you fucking fuck’ isn’t the same as, ‘What the fuck is wrong with my stapler?’ 😉

I had to go through the entire alphabet in my head to remember that his name starts with a "Z".

What? Is this true?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

That one screen was replaced for another? Seems true to me.

Of course it’s true. In 1996, people thought The Spice Girls and Oasis were worth listening to.

I am convinced that there is no substance - natural or manmade - with a lower coefficient of friction than cat vomit on a tile floor.
