CheerUp ecard: I'm sorry that our reality is sometimes just badly calibrated. Ecard image showing: I'm sorry that our reality is sometimes just badly calibrated.

About This Card

One of the things that makes apologizing so enjoyable is that people always believe me. Once I set fire to someone’s couch and, even though I was doing them a huge favor (it had a floral print), things were tense until I said sorry. That’s why it’s childish not to say sorry. Next week I’m setting fire to their new couch because it’s brown and I’ll say sorry again. Maturity doesn’t mean ‘boring’.

from the newsletter

Every time I stared down the sights of my BB gun at my neighbour as he descended his back stairs (unmasked and mindlessly unready for the perils of this world) I wondered why such men exist. And over time I concluded they exist because baby bears need to eat too.

— Oh, For the Fear of a Bear!

An illustration of a coffee-cup, and the text: 'buy me coffee'.
