Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Huh. Turns out the whole thing started a year ago, came out last month, but I'm only just hearing about it. [link]

He has a pig. OK.
You know, I think piglets are adorable, but I don't think I would ever want a pig for a pet. Just doesn't appeal.

Woobie!
Despite pain so intense he could barely walk, the 44-year-old actor-director still appeared on the red carpet at the 'Ocean's Twelve' premiere last December, although he was too weak to climb three stairs up to "The Insider"'s own platform.
Or, you know, he just wanted to go home to his pig.

If spinal fluid is leaking through your fucking nose, I guess you would be in pain.
Damn.

Greek style
Emily, your proof looks completely OK to the entirely-not-a-mathematician me, who has no idea what is that Greek style and what other styles exist or anything of that sort.
What are the Hebrew initials and what are the words they stand for?
M.Sh.L. (we have the one letter that stands for the "sh" sound). It's pronounced usually "mashal", which is also a word in Hebrew, meaning a proverb, a fable, or an allegory. They are the initials of "ma shehaya lehokhiakh". "ma" = what, "shehaya" - that was and "lehokhiakh" - to be proven.
which I already knew and used to use as a sort of meditation to get to sleep oh god am I geeky enough yet?
My brother used to calculate all sorts of roots and powers in order to pass the time when he had to stang guard on his army service.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Poor Clooney! I hereby volunteer to comfort and cosset him, because I'm a giver like that.

Oh, it's just that the Greeks didn't have the notation to do the proof this way, so their proof has to do with comparing two lines of different length, subtracting one from the other and the remainder of that one from the first one, and the remainder of that from the remainder above, and so on in order to prove that there was, basically, no common divisor. Only they said it much more complicatedly.

So they did their algebra through some sort of a geometric language, you mean?
