Thing you had to say today!

This set off a chain in my house of coming up with a random silly quote you uddered during the day as the start of an anecdote.

Rules are simple:

  1. Post your quote

  3. Engage in light, friendly banter about it

My hangover is much less than that of the person I said it to.

Just smell the top of it!

What if tiny, tiny elves are responsible?

I’m in a philosophy of science class.

OK, but, what if you just think that because you are actually a brain in a vat, and someone is applying an electrical charge which causes you to experience it that way? :laughing:

It was a philosophy of science class that convinced me to take philosophy of mind, which convinced me that I needed to switch majors from chemistry to philosophy.
