Reminds me of this NYT video about how a pop song is made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaAv5AiBRgY

At the beginning, a musician at a keyboard composes the basic tune. Then a whole series of MFers overproduce it to hell. At the end, the original musician happens to meet the singer who did the human part of the final rendering and is the “star” who everybody watches perform. In a better day, the original musician would be the star, but in this process they are insignificant.

I couldn’t find that quote anywhere, and it’s very unlikely that Cicero said it, or something like that.

To find the quote that you seek,
You must first wash you’re balls in the Baja Blast.

By the looks of it, the ground floor and the first floor are going to be the same place pretty soon.

The only place they can unconditionally exist at, outside of their house, is their car.

Even then police will come by to see what you’re doing.

Dissenting opinion: some people need less sleep as they get older. iirc I needed the most sleep in my late 20s, but it’s decreased since then.
