- I do assume you mean the precursor to these c/boogie robots: (The rap is amazing, I just immediately misheard you, a la Dr. Nefario.)

- Grabbing whatever poor sap* happens to be closest to me by the lapels, shaking them and screaming this in their face because THIS! THIS! THIS!!!! *who already knows/agrees because otherwise they wouldn’t be within grabbing distance. Sorry to them. But it makes me SCREAMMMMM.

- We were so lucky that my MIL was a really excellent (retired) elementary reading specialist. Not just in helping our boys learn to read, but helping their teachers level up reading instruction for all kids. Not new ideas! Just not the ones consultants were selling. 🤦🏻♀️

- My husband (devoted Arsenal fan for at least the ~25 years I’ve known him) is watching our 16yo’s game on one pitch, the top team for our 13yo’s club on a second pitch, and your game on his phone. Possibly frying his brain in the process but will be thrilled you kept City to 1 point.

- That is a TONGUE. 😍 Our black lab G, instead of growing huge paws, I swear grew a huge tail and tongue. And grew into them (mostly) later. We encountered a toddler when G was that age, who was so excited to pet a dog! And then he saw G’s tongue and backed away horrified. 😂😭
