Proof here.
I’m fixing this post with proper attribution. I did do a quick web search before posting this, but apparently it was too quick. Bleagh.
There are some things I care about being good at. Like cooking. Others, I do because In like doing, and I might suck at them, but I still enjoy them. Like basketball. I love running after that ball and throwing it around.
