What’s that thing people say about dogs growing to resemble their owners?
Man, transcendental equations are so undignified. Wtf do you mean I can’t solve for x? It’s right there.
Woke up from a dream in which two Frenchmen were taking a break from work to stand in a stairwell and argue the merits of counting by twenties. “How would our lives be any different if we had just one word to express quatre-vingt-dix?” A victory of immaculate vibes.
A letter written by my dad in the Chicago Daily News, May 1968. It could have been written in the 2020s.

I have a few remarks about this movie. First of all, Anne Hathaway. Moreover, John Leguizamo. In conclusion, Anne Hathaway one more time.

There’s a guy here with a shirt that says “in dog beers I’ve only had one” so I haven’t been able to pay attention to the game at all. I’m stuck trying to work out the shirt
