I once met a guy who made at least 20 times what I make and didn’t know how to spell dolphin. He was a bit better than me at trading commodities though.

trading commodities is truly the most important skill to making society function, god only knows how we'd survive without people who make bets with other people's money

I don't know which God you're referencing but your genetics is programmed with planned obsolescence. You will die one day. There are only so many monthly tributes to your landed lord before you are free for the first time.

You're welcome

Did he ask if the tuna you were having for lunch was dollfin safe? I’m guessing he wasn’t informing you about anything like “dolphins pass puffer fish to get high” or “dolphins sexually assault other dolphins“.

Don’t ask your doctor to spell something if that matters to you
