It’s like when an American becomes conscious. Memories before that just don’t count.

High school class song plays,
From youthful anamnesis,
To ponder what if.

“I wanted Oh very young by cat stevens, the class prez wanted desiderata. I lost, our entire class lost. “

Jesus. I had never heard of that and now that I watched about 30 seconds of it I want those 30 seconds back. That song sucks

“Thank you! Pathetic and contrived “

That presentation deserves only monosyllabic descriptors like sad and fake.

“So I wasted 3 syllables I could have used on some other more glorious cause?”

Sorry, but yes.

“So the ramifications would be something like this, ‘ give me liberty or….’”

It seems in the sum of all syllables, there will be something that you will say that if you had these three syllables to add to it would become …

“I don’t think you can end abruptly. You didn’t waste syllables.”

… quite profound.

“I was thinking “freaking brilliant” but I knew you could count “

“I think the bottom line is that I am going to be no boost to society, and live my days in obscurity.”

“And I’m ok with that.But here’s a thought, what if I become pithy and build up a syllable offset, kind of like a carbon offset?”

That’s brilliant I will ponder on that and we must use that somewhere
