Out shopping with my then-12yo, looking for earrings as a gift for my partner.

kid: how about these?
me: nah, she doesn't like studs, she prefers drops.
kid: [looks me dead in the eye]
kid: Evidently.

later:

kid: these?
me: ehh, she doesn't really go for gold
kid: Again.

wouldn't that be sophophilia?

I wonder if they were stalling to wait out the timer on legally-incompetent status of Dear Leader

I heard a story once from an academic who went to Greece for a philosophy conference.

He was touristing around the city looking ratty and vaguely suspicious, and was picked up and questioned by police.

"But I'm here for the conference - I'm a philospher!"

"Prove it."

That's why I drink Valvoline.

I once put some chicken carcasses in the slow cooker overnight to make stock.

The next morning at 6am, then-6yo burst into the bedroom saying "Dad! Dad! You need to clean the carpets!"

:visions of unimaginable horror:

Turns out it was just chicken stock smell pervading the place.

Is it clickbait by any chance?
