Everyone who's into the same things should actually have the opportunity to all live with each other on a sprawling estate that's within walking distance to a charming small town with lots of reasonably priced coffee shops and a university. We could all be braiding each other's hair and baking in our spare time while someone shares research but alas we are just here.

I'm sorry but I must inflict this thought upon you.

Memes are Homeric parallels. "as when the man turns his head from his girlfriend to see a more beautiful girl, so too did swift footed Achilles turn from a long life to an eternal glory."

I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry.
