Well, if these fixed sales are cutting into our recurring revenue then they’ve got to go! Vault them all. Every last one. Surely the problem is that we just haven’t gatekept popular culture well enough? It’s the children who are wrong.

Oh, huh, I have always noted an odd ruddiness/doughiness as being common to certain ASD individuals I know. I always just attributed it to being overweight etc but I wonder if that’s the vasopressin fluid imbalance.
