In freshman physics lab, partner and I set up the experiments to get the answers we needed. Our attitude was "We know the density of water. We know the rate of gravity. We just want to get out of here."
I ended up BA English, but partner got a PhD at CalTech, so our approach didn't seem to hurt him.

I don't think they take hearts from walking talking donors. Even on Chicago Med, the guy had to grab the cop's gun and shoot himself in the ER for them to give the heart to his sick son.

The people who text me that they're waiting at the door. I do not carry my phone with me every second and I keep it on do not disturb.
