Caught 'antidisestablishmentarianism' sneaking into a box that was half Bibles and half The God Delusion, caught 'sesquipedalianism' clinging to a lifeboat and sobbing. Never caught 'supercalifragilisticexplialido...do...'

Nah, it's gone.

Does the lack of speed truly trouble you, or are you looking for irrelevant matters to get all worked up about in order to fill the void of existence?

Some kid in the building keeps ringing the doorbell whenever they walk past. Today his mom made him go to every door he's done this to and apologize. I was terrified it was a trick-or-treater at first, I have only one bar of chocolate in the place.

You just scared the crap out of me.

I thought I'd missed two days and it was Hallowe'en already. I have no chocolate in the house at all.

Not as fun as you might think. It posits that the solution to existential dread is just keep living anyway to spite the universe.

Well, something close to that.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.
