Johnny Appleseed left the ideal legacy. He’s just a guy who wandered around planting apple trees and look where he is. People get surprised when you tell them he was real, and they get more surprised when they find out anything more about him. I want nothing more than to be remembered as a folktale that was so much weirder in real life

Why is it when people say ‘university’ I think of scholars doing research in a library with only a dim lamp to light their pages, but when someone says ‘college’ I think of frat boys who can’t leave their dorm without a hat on and like to put speakers on their backpacks?

The ideal way to share stories is over a fire in the middle of nowhere with a vague threat looming over you, but you can’t light things on fire without asking anymore so instead I have to type things out like a hooligan

Y’all know those books that are basically a three hundred page version of flipping someone off? Perfection.
