@werehatrack Yup. I know mine teach me to be a better human every day. I’ve also seen anthropologists suggest elephants were vital in our leaving the trees. Having elephants, unfortunately, is less ideal, so with my personal experience I say Dogs. (Followed by vaccinations)

Gravity was a good invention. I bet it was hard to keep things from floating before Newton came along.
@Mehlachi Gravity sucks.
@Mehlachi @yakkoTDI
However I’d hazard a guess that this is because gravity works all the time not just when you want it to.

I always say, “the best thing since pockets on jeans”
@jnicholson0619 Unless they’re women’s pants
@jnicholson0619 @katbyter My jeans have pockets, but way too many don’t. It’s even worse with shorts.
@jnicholson0619 @katbyter @werehatrack And pockets on woman’s pants can be way too small.
@jnicholson0619 @katbyter @Kidsandliz Or worse yet, something that looks like a pocket but actually isn’t.
@jnicholson0619 @katbyter @Kidsandliz And when we nag them to put pockets in pants, what do we get? Cargo leggings. Cargo. LEGGINGS. OFFS.
