Another good one-liner to summarize philosophy is: “This too shall pass.”

Now I want a Spider Roll (classic sushi roll made with fried soft-shell crab, rolled so some of the legs are sticking out the ends, it really does look spidery).

Some windows have (non-sturdy) inside shutters that act as hinged, decorative blinds.

Thanks, now that song is stuck in my head.
Speaking of which, I saw that YouTube had a video of the very old black-and-white “Cracker Jack” TV commercial with the kids singing, and without even watching it, the song from the ad popped into my head and played flawlessly all the way through even though I haven’t seen or heard that commercial in about 50 years.

Never mind dial phone, these days you’re old even if you’ve used a touch-tone phone.

To be fair (regarding car prices), cars today are much more technologically advanced compared to the cars of yore. My current car (2013 model) is practically a space ship compared to the 1968 car I had when I first started driving. And the extra tech is worth it — the collision avoidance system saved my life a few years ago, or at least saved me from horrendous injuries; you can’t put a price on that. Plus they’re much more reliable; I remember the days when you were pushing your luck to have a car last 100,000 miles, now that’s just getting worn in, and these days you basically don’t have to open the hood for 30,000 miles, whereas in the old days you’d have to check the fluids and belts nearly every time you stopped for gas, and frequently adjust the timing and spark gaps and idle mixture and change the points in the distributor and clean the carburetor and so on.
Likewise, people complain about healthcare costs lately, but medical science is hugely advanced today compared to what was available to your grandparents. It’s unfair to expect to get 21st century medical care at the cost of 1950’s medical care, unless you’re willing to limit yourself to only the treatments and diagnostics and knowledge from the 50’s.

The reason you “have to pay property taxes on houses we do not own until it’s paid off” is because for the most part those property taxes are paying for the city services you use when you live there (things like sewage, garbage pickup, roads, fire stations, etc.), which you still use even while your house isn’t yet paid off.

Well, he could try living in a non-capitalistic system, where his life is influenced by the demands of the Politburo, which history shows is far, far worse (and more deadly) than just having to provide any useful service to customers in whatever capacity you opt to do so.
