"Thanks and Unthanks" plus miscellaneous items

My friend, let's call him Steve (wink), inspired me to write another post.

It's going to be in two sections today.

1. First is what I will call "Thanks and Unthanks", where I express some things I liked and didn't in the day, or recently.
Thanks to Steve for the funniest conversation I had all day, I absolutely needed it. I'm glad to sometimes entertain him as well.

Unthanks to the guy who ran up the work stairs two at a time after we opened the door to the stairwell. It was great watching you get up that much faster and letting the door close practically in my face. Good job your parents did raising you buddy!

Thanks to Jack for passing out candy, and nicely thanking me for my praise at his recent presentation. Well played, sir.

Unthanks to the guy driving in front of me in the left turn only lane, which is clearly marked (including a left turn arrow) and had people signalling left, who urgently had to turn right instead at the last second. Your diligence in the art of bad driving took you far beyond the standard poor driving of your fellow residents in this state. Bravo, new low achieved.

2. On to miscelleneous items. Today, I learned about two terms, "Otherkin" and "Species dysphoria". I can't do the terms justice, a wikipedia search will get you what they mean. There are some people I'm going to ask, to see if they've encountered people of that type.

For Steve, it's a 335i XDrive. In nice shape, too.

Happy trails to those happy few who read this.
