      I don’t know anything about what is between my ears and your brains, but even so, I love you.

      Asking a technical question at work only for people to interpret it in a completely wrong way and needing to rephrase everything after confirming with a colleague that what I wrote the first time was actually clear… How do people’s brain works?
