"you want to go see a movie with your friend Joe. You can’t get away with leaving the house..."

“you want to go see a movie with your friend Joe. You can’t get away with leaving the house when the kitchen is such a mess, so you have to load and run the dishwasher before you go. Unfortunately you’re out of detergent, which means you have to run to the store to pick some up. You want to ride your bike or it will take too long to get to the store. But your bike’s front tire is kind of low, so you have to pump it up first. However, your roommate borrowed your tire pump and you don’t know where it is, so you have to go find your roommate and ask him about it. He’s over at a neighbor’s place having band practice, but it’s just a short walk. When you get there they are in the middle of practice so you have to wait for a few minutes. The only place to sit is on that ratty old sofa, right next to the drummer’s sister, Monica, who will only let you sit there on the condition you smoke a joint with her. But before you can do that you have to dig around in the seat cushions to find the lighter she just realized she lost. You manage to find the lighter, and before too long you are smoking out with Monica. The band finishes the number and your roommate comes over to see what’s up. You take another hit off the joint and say “Hey, we should order a pizza.””

“

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.

Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.

Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.

And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

They somehow already know what you truly want to become.

Everything else is secondary.

Dear websites, please let me enter phone numbers, credit card numbers, bank account numbers, and similar, using any combination of spacing and hyphens I choose, please especially do this if the number is always displayed with the spacing included. It is a lot easier for me to enter the number, and check I’ve entered it correctly, if you let me do this. The code to strip any spaces out, if you can’t cope with them being there, is almost as simple as the code you must already have to detect they are there and complain about me using them - don’t make your users do it for you manually, it’s unhelpful, and kind of rude.
