So, please tell me to step away from the Internet and not argue with someone about a made up quote from Socrates.
I think I am losing my mind.
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

Maybe you need to sleep with more...imaginative virgins?
You may have just found exceedingly talented unicorn bait.
Because my experience pretty much lines up with Herc's.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
STEP AWAY, LE NUBIAN.

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

Or untalented veterans. I've never stuck around anyone long enough to chart their progress, but you absolutely can't draw a line through my bed partners that gives any simple function between (# of lays since cherry pop) and (ability to moisten knickers). You could correlate it to other things, like personality, and to some degree body awareness, etc. Some people are just bad lays, and other people in general throw themselves at the challenge with an open mind and sensitive fingers that...yeah.

a made up quote from Socrates.
Is it "like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives"? Because I would let that one slide, personally.

Hey Lee, is the nail polish box still going?
hangs head in shame
The nail polish box has been stalled at my house for a very long time. I will try to get it mailed out this weekend.

Oh, I don't even know if I'm still on the list! I just have polishes I don't want.

t,
oh you made me giggle!
No, it is "Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for their elders and love chatter in place of exercise; they no longer rise when elders enter the room; they contradict their parents, chatter before company; gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers.”"
Some author in 1959 said Plato said Socrates said it, but if you search Plato, that quote is nowhere to be found.
I even gave citations regarding how Socrates quotes pretty much can't ever be verified and that there is documented difficulty of attributing this quote to Plato much less Socrates.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I was actually going to use it my class in the Fall if I could verify it. Now, I might as well just make up my own damn quote.
