I know I promised to do a comparison of parental roles, but I haven't found the time lately. I'll get it done soon.
However I had two things pop into my head today.
One is just a made-up word that had a ring to it: extratard. BTW - do a google search, this is a new word. That's right, you're witnessing history. Extratard - a person so retarded (retarded as in acts so but is not in fact retarded) that they are beyond retarded - see also: Utratard, Megatard, or Geek Squad.
The other thought was that Money is like God. They both exist, but you can't prove it. You just have to have faith unless of course for you Money Is a God, but you can't really prove your god there either.
I came across this last one when discussing the healthcare stuff. One of the prime arguments is the "trillion dollar" thing. Money is entirely made up like my word earlier. As a global society we have agreed on a vague concept of value with which to trade, but when we're talking about a trillion dollar bill this money is completely imaginary. The money will be created from the hot butt-gas of a couple hundred old men and women in DC, so what's the fuss all about? If we're not spending real money who cares?
Obviously I'm being facetious here, but the question is still lingering in my mind.
