That soup looks tasty, whatever it is.

Keycaps look cool, but would prefer miniature boobs.

The special Urushi brush is made from the tender hairs of a virgin.  At least that's what the internet says.  Sometimes the internet is wrong.

The color is Fri Zhu.

Everything that you read on the Internet is true.

                              - Abraham Lincoln
“No political truth is of greater intrinsic value, or is stamped with the authority of more enlightened patrons of liberty: The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands .… may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” —James Madison, Federalist 47
“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48

I heard it told that the best sushi is made by men because they have colder hands.
