It's the stupid questions that have some of the most surprising and interesting answers. Most people never think to ask the stupid questions.

The opposite of esprit d'escalier is the way that life's embarrassments come back to haunt us even after they're long past. I could remember every stupid thing I'd ever said or done, recall them with picture-perfect clarity. Any time I was feeling low, I'd naturally start to remember other times I felt that way, a hit parade of humiliations coming one after another to my mind.

Good authors, too, who once knew better words Now only use four-letter words Writing prose — Anything goes.
