    I won't surrender to darkness, but I might surrender to failure.

    I prefer to surrender to the unknown. I'll be ready for the fight and ready for the light.

    commensalism -
    an association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither harm nor benefit.

    Garlic is an anticoagulant. Eating garlic to ward off vampires is actually propaganda by vampires to make humans bleed more efficiently.

    Cleaning your ear canal with q-tips is a BAD idea. If you have excessive ear wax it's not because you aren't a clean person. Wax builds up from the inside out and some people just produce more of it than others. Using q-tips isn't gonna get that impacted chunk of wax out, but it will push it in farther and impact it harder/denser. It's also a blind sweep so you could end up injuring your eardrum.

    The instructions actually say not to stick it in the ear but use it around the ear.

    That labeling was probably brought about by someone trying to sue the q-tip makers. I imagine most people who use them stick them in their ear canal. I use them to apply antibiotic ointments to my kids' boo boos but I'm probably in the minority.

    Since dust is partly made of human cells, an old library isn’t just a collection of books but also a collection of the people who walk through it.

    Maroon 5 is what a pumpkin spiced latte would sound like if it started a band.
