@cypnk i failed a grade in middle school, and one of my standard nightmares thereafter was that i had been held back again.

in adulthood, this transformed into a recurring dream that i had through some inscrutable process been recalled as an adult back to some strata of k-12 education because i didn't _really_ graduate. usually with a side of not remembering my locker number.

it's mostly fallen off in my late 30s, thank god.

i think you guys might want to revisit the definition of "endearing".

@jk the ratio achieved by an average housecat seems roughly correct to me.
