My husband has a scar from a machete strike that he got in the streets of Cairo as a teenager. And he won that fight.

His myriad intellectual and managerial achievements in the subsequent years aside, I only accept criticisms of how he leans or poses in photos from those who can present similar levels of badassary.

(I’m kind of joking, but also not really. My main point is that commenting on who leans toward who in a random photo is cringe, without knowing the context.)

I agree with this. I know exactly what you are talking about….

Fierce loyalty ftw.

I was flipping through a “body language” book and a lot of it sounds like reading horoscopes.

Theres probably a disturbing amount of validity to it, but Id rather see it this way

I was looking up a particular read on “tight lipped ness” because I didn’t understand it when I saw it. The book told me it was a sign of “being unimpressed”. It made me feel bad a bit feeling like a dissapointment.

The only lean I care about is the lean of a steak.

People underestimate how different reality is from individual to individual. The more I learn about you and your husband the more I respect you both. It literally came up at a drunken family dinner recently, “if you could have lunch with any living person right now who would it be?”

One of my brothers and myself both said Lyn Alden.

You are more badass than you know.

Don’t trust, verify. Did you verify it was really from a machete ?

I want to hear this street fight story

Dayumn, that is indeed pretty badass in my humble opinion 😱 And who cares about leaning, you guys look great together 🫶

So wait, you're both total legends? Remember us plebs when you conquer the world :)
