Why would anyone want to stay in 2025?

Every fucking year someone gives me a new year with a lot of promises how good the new year will be. But the only sure thing is, I'm getting older.

I could have gotten a slightly used 1996, but nooo, I got a new 2026.

I can't remember the exact line, but there's a scene in "Groundhog Day' where he's in a bar and has just run five racks of pool. "I once had a vacation in the Bahamas. I swam, ate lobster for lunch, and had a date with a stewardess. Why can't I relive that day over and over.?

Sure, things haven't been that great over the last few years, but this year will be different. You'll see!

I'm taking this as a promise, non-ironically. I just want it to be true.

Yeah, I've certainly reached my limit.

Infinitesimal calculus motherfucker, do you speak it?

This only works if you don't get distracted at all and read infinitely fast.

It constitutes by itself a critique of pure logic. ๐Ÿ˜
