inUpdate: Everyone in my neighborhood is suddenly into stock picking apps.

inUnpopular opinion: I doubted oil finishes until a spill at a party proved their ease.
But hold on, does seeing something always mean it's true? I've seen plenty of stuff that turned out to be fake or just not as big a deal as people said. Like that viral video last year everyone lost their minds over, it was just a good edit. So sure, seeing might convince you, but that doesn't make it serious. People tend to blow things out of proportion. I'm not sold that everything we see is worth getting all worked up about.

inWhat if my great-grandma had taken that teaching job in another state?
You ever think about how many big life turns come from simple family stuff? My grandpa passed on a factory job in California because his mom got the flu. He stuck around, met my grandma at a local diner, and never left our midwest town. Now I'm here because of that one sick day back in 1952. I could have been raised near the ocean, but nope. It's all because someone felt they had to stay put.
