Five good things to absorb while you’re still young:
1. a lot of hippies are selfish, unpleasant, and not particularly funny
2. people who argue well aren’t necessarily right
3. cars are kind of a weird thing to spend a lot of money on
4. people will do things for you if you ask them as a favor
5. angry waiters totally do things to your food
My favorite is the “NPR Drinking Game”:
1. Nina Totenberg reads a transcript (1 drink)
2. oboe is heard (2 drinks)
3. Malcolm Gladwell reference (1 drink)
4. Scott Simon cracks himself up (1 drink)
5. Daniel Schorr mentions Watergate (3 drinks)
