    What about con­ver­sa­tions you have to have but don’t want to have so you secretly hope your phone has run out of bat­tery juice and you MUST catch the train?

    I’m a big fan of the list.

    I think my refus­als have more to them than my pro­pos­als. And I’m lov­ing the idea of punc­tu­ation you don’t want to use. Per­son­ally I have a bot­tom drawer filled with every colon and semi colon I’ve ever come across.
