It's a bit of a shame, but I totally don't care for the cover of the song. Not enough to watch the video twice.
You're a bloody puppet! You're a wee little puppet man!

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just emailed someone asking a question that I immediately found the answer to via Google. I am now rolling my eyes forever at myself.
Also, and I'm not even congested, but I swear my nose is whistling when I breathe. Ew.

Hmm. I've been operating on the assumption that a 2-4 year age difference (guy older than chick) is normal for Western society. Well, at least in the places I've lived, and for married couples.
I realise that my generation might be mucking things up a bit, but it certainly held for my parents.
Am I on crack? Have things changed for my generation? I haven't even sat down and tried to work out how to google for those stats yet.

When you're racing - it's life. Anything that comes before or after is just waiting.
Congrats bon bon. What specifically are you searching for in regards to neurology? I might be able to help you narrow down your search.

I don't think so. If you look at the median age for marriage, for men it is a couple years older than for women, so while that doesn't describe every couple, it implies a trend. I found this : [link]

Wow, that's really interesting. I'm especially fascinated that they were so young in the 60s and 70s. I mean, I guess people I know who got married then were that young, but I wouldn't have thought the average ages would have been older earlier.

What does "median" mean again in stats?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You arrange the values in order then take the middle one. So if you have 101 pieces of data, the median would be the 51st one.

Order values, take the one that falls in the exact middle. 20 values, you take the one that falls in the 10th place.
