The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

“Hints” is another name for “charades”
Build a man a fire, and he’ll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life. (Terry Pratchett)
Down with this sort of thing
Careful now
“Light thinks it travels faster than anything, but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.”
I definitely did not think it was a rocket without ever really looking at it closely.
Recently learned it’s actually “Eagles”, not “The Eagles”. (For example, take a look at the album covers. There are also documentaries in which they talk about it.)
But even the band themselves will use “the” when it grammatically makes sense. So confusing.
