Lovable Sidekick

I don’t save memes anymore, there’s an endless firehose of them.

Did the early 2000s call or is this fad back again?

Oh no, it’s Doofenschmertz again.

A point that says it’s wrong to compliment somebody without complimenting a whole bunch of other people is a non-point. It’s plain that the real point is the popular notion that nothing positive should happen to anyone who isn’t downtrodden, because they already have too many positives and don’t deserve another one. If a kid gets a compliment for drawing a picture of the sun and some clouds, looking up her family’s net worth and making it a class war issue is just childishly petty.

Things that aren’t common among one’s peers tend to be noticeable. I don’t think it’s an issue of wealth vs poverty.

We’re fine here, everything’s fine. How are you?

“a long time ago”

A long time ago I took the Army General Classification Test to help a friend who needed test subjects for some kind of psych class. Almost every arithmetic question was about cigarettes… Bob has $1.50, cigarettes cost 50 cents a pack, how many packs can Bob buy?

Aye, there be other means, for them as has 'em.
