"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

"...in the mid-’90s when the internet was coming...there was a tendency to assume that when all the world’s knowledge comes online, everyone will flock to it. It turns out that if you give everyone access to the Library of Congress, what they do is watch videos on TikTok."  -Neil Stephenson, author, in The Atlantic

There's part of me that can identify with that. I don't do it, but I understand.

On Saturday I was on my way to my aunt's birthday party in Nova Scotia, and stopped into a Sobeys (one of Canada's two main grocery chains) to pick up some potato chips as our contribution. As I walked in there was a couple standing in front of a big display of corn, packed in threes on styrofoam trays at $2.99 ea.

 

The man was boggling at this and grumped that "A buck an ear is highway robbery!"

 

"No," I told him, "It's...piracy."

His wife/girlfriend got it right away and laughed, but it took him a few beats. What can I say, Dad Jokes 'R' Us.
