#Anecdote

A funny story:
My husband is an identical twin. A couple of years ago, his brother had a bad stroke and could barely walk or speak. We came to visit, and were all masked up when we walked in. But my husband had taken off his mask at one point, and had forgotten to put it back on when he left the patient room to ask a question at the nursing station.

The nurses at that station did a double-take, and one looked genuinely shocked. She began to ask how he was able to do that, when I realized the source of their confusion and shock, and I loudly interjected, "They're identical twins. This is his brother."

The nurses joined my husband and I in a long laugh.

[At the time of his stroke, my brother-in-law did not have his beard and was about the same weight as my husband, which is why the nurses were confused. And yes, my BIL is doing much better now.]

Instead of complaining how fast fashion ruins American thrift stores, let's make fun of finding a pair of Armani pants for $ 3 (three). They were simply the only ones that fit that day and will be just fine for gardening, 😃. Really.

They even had changing stalls, a rare convenience these days.

Encore une #anecdote du jour de ma #viedeprof à l'université. Et cette fois-ci, c'est positif et ça fait plaisir !

Pour le contexte :
- j'enseigne dans une formation avec 10-20% de jeunes femmes, max, donc un public très masculin.
- je suis également référente à la mission égalité diversité (pour lutter contre les discriminations et le harcèlement)

Cette année, une collègue a mis un place une super initiative : un mini-congrès pour les étudiant·es, avec soutenances de leur projet, concours de structures, concours de poster, etc.

Et ce matin, l'idée était que les étu puissent échanger avec les prof de manière informelle, sur nos parcours, etc.

Ca commence à faire beaucoup de texte, donc la suite en réponse.

A quotation from Mignon McLaughlin

Your children tell you casually years later what it would have killed you with worry to know at the time.

Mignon McLaughlin (1913-1983) American journalist and author
The Second Neurotic’s Notebook, ch. 2 (1966)

@grammargirl @rmblaber1956 Oh that's an old #anecdote . I'll translate the newspapers names too, because there are the core of the joke:

"A man walks up to a newspaper stand:

— Sell me the "News", "Truth", "Soviet Russia" and the "Labor" newspapers, please.
— There are no truth in the "News" and there are no news in the "Truth". "Russia" is sold, there is only the "Labor" for 3 pennies."

Bill Laswell revealed that his manager Roger Trilling originally recorded the phrase "Ahhhhh, this stuff is really fresh", during some studio sessions. According to both Laswell and Roger Trilling himself, the later was imitating a record executive who would reportedly exclaim "this stuff is really fresh!" whenever he heard a song he liked.
This sampled imitation of an executive by Trilling was spoken through a vocoder.
"Change the Beat" by Beside & Fab 5 Freddy became one of the three most sampled vinyl in history, appearing in over 2600 tracks as of 2022.
