I posted my story before, but I kept thinking, “You know, that’s a really boring story. At the time, it seemed like a bigger deal.” Then I remembered that I’d left out the crucial detail. So here’s the amended version:

I’ve played soccer my entire life and do a fair bit of road racing (5 half marathons under my belt), and I’ve never had a toenail problem.

On the phone thing:

Selectively slowed-down replays that make the putt look much closer than it was?!

Every response: “... so then I acted like a complete asshole and ruined someone’s day/property/outlook on life. It was awesome!”

For me, the precise moment of jumping out of the plane produced an incredible rush of adrenaline.

Mr. Former FBI Agent probably has no clue what he’s talking about.

“Waaah! Waaah! I have to keep my AC off! I can’t sleep because of the white noise drowning out the traffic!”

Fingerprint scanner is actually a pretty fantastic feature. I have an iPhone 6 for work and an Android device for personal use, and I really, really wish my Android phone kept up in that department.
