Long live Fishy Rock Meow.

Subsequent attempts are ignored completely. Child refuses concept of giving a name to another being. The fish simply is.

Ask again later. “What’s the fishy’s name?” “Meow?” (Similar question structure to animal noises). But fish is not a cat, we explain it’s a different question, he’s not convinced.

Please note that in an earlier post the date was wrong. It is Tuesday the 14th, NOT Wed the 15th.

Sorry, the 14th. I’m going to delete this post and try again :) thanks for noticing.

Could be that someone made an error in the calendar software that generated the message? Worth politely checking that wasn’t the case

So my guess is that trifold letter envelopes exist because the people who started using envelopes had previously used wax seals.

I feel like this is all about the way that people keep doing things one way after the reason for it ends. A vestigial fold, if you will.

Old correspondence was scrolls. Then paper sealed with wax. A trifold makes a lot of sense for a wax seal.
