A Story about our Stories

I spotted this in the New York Times Magazine from February 10, 2008. The opening line of the article sent me here to post it to our little drinking circle.

"Why are videos of drunken people so compelling?"

Indeed.

Yes, well . . .

Check out this snippet from Ken Jennings's blog:

Dylan’s home sick today with the flu. He’s sitting here in my office and just told me sadly, “I feel glommy.” I looked up “glommy” on WebMD: nothing. He also mused, “I wonder who invented the idea of barfing in the toilet.” Dylan is very into science and scientists lately, and seems to think barfing-in-the-toilet must have been a Nobel-worthy discovery. Genius!



— Or a drunken discovery?
