      Absolutely! Look at this chimpanzee. Dude has heavy thoughts, and he’s ready to write them all down. He probably does slam poetry on the weekends. His girlfriend’s parents hate him because he is broadening her mind in ways they find uncomfortable.

        When I was young and feeling invulnerable, the heavyweight wrestler for our university (who i worked with) told me I looked tough and cool with a cig hanging from my mouth.

        He didn’t really have the capacity for dry sarcasm. I remember thinking that was not a good thing to tell me. Especially bc I knew that I wasn’t “cool”. I was a dork.
