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

Karl, I'm so very sorry.

Really sorry. Much strength to you and your entire family.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ah, Karl. I'm so sorry.

In a complete tonal shift, if you like Adele, you might like this, and if you dislike Adele, you might like this: [link]

At least, that was apparently my sister's thought process when she forwarded me the link to the song this morning. Unfortunately I neither like nor dislike her, so it had little resonance for me.

Separately, I just had a co-worker use the phrase "unwrap the kimono" in a meeting this morning. I kinda boggled.

Okay, I didn't click 46 times to read the business jargon. What is "unwrap the kimono" supposed to mean?

That's rough, Karl. My condolences.

Yeah, I'm just as glad I've still never heard it.

I didn't read the business jargon thing either, because I didn't want my head to explode from rage. But from context today, I think it's similar to looking under the hood. Looking at the inner layers/workings of something.

Because books.

Oh, Karl, I'm so sorry.
