If you want to know the true nature of a person, ask them to make a small sacrifice to protect the life of a stranger.

"It is routine for celebrities to broadcast banal information and fill Instagram with the “moments” that constitute their day, the tacit principle being that, once you are important enough, nothing is mundane. This delusion then spills out to the non-celebrity; recording mundane events becomes proof of your importance"

3. I have a few of them in my feed

I linger on Facebook because of the connection it gives me to some far flung relatives and old friends.

But my feed is dominated by a few people that post banal stuff all the time.

Unsurprisingly, it the people that I don't find particularly interesting. Go figure.

"Predictably" would be another.

5. I bring my shopping cart back to the entrance.

The hard working staff have enough to do wiping everything down, and everyone is required to bring a cart in. No carts available = you have to wait. So I figure it’s the least that I can do.

6. yup!
