Putting up the 🎄 today, and I see 13 take a 📸 of me. Thought she was capturing a memory - her good ol dad putting up the decorations.
Nope - she just noticed that my nose is so big that when I turned a certain way, the morning light shining through made it glow like Rudolph.
Well played, child.

We're all prone to temporal self-discontinuity - a sense that our past or future self is someone else.
-We're mad that past self stayed up late and now we are tired
-Now self skips the gym hoping that future self will take care of it
