I thought most people do this. I do. When I was a young’un, I couldn’t have any food touching any other food and ate them one by one. I get called a freak less often with the latter habit.

I think you have a good point. I’m not gonna generally lambaste a business/ad in the comments, but I’d like for the option to be there as a possible feedback mechanism. Bans aren’t the only tool.

For me, it’s about context and scope. The wide open wonder of my youth has been replaced by little epiphanies of experience. A bite of really good food, or music, or a great joke can bring me a startling amount of joy. A lot of my awe has also been replaced by satisfaction and appreciation. Getting old sucks undeniably, but there are compensations.
