Such delightful nerds that they felt the need to correct their old song! Well, it was a cover, but I’m pretty sure anyone who knows “Why Does the Sun Shine? (The Sun Is a Mass of Incandescent Gas)” associates it with TMBG

My favorite version

I have noticed my ability to take things in stride definitely goes down when I don’t feel well. I would check in with yourself physically- is there a non-obvious physical ailment that might be putting you on edge? Perhaps there’s pain or headaches that you don’t consciously consider that’s diminishing your ability to deal with stuff. Otherwise I would suggest what others have suggested- looking into whether you might have some level of anxiety disorder. This may mean medication and/or something like cognitive behavioral therapy

Either can prescribe it. Depends on the person’s situation- other symptoms, severity, etc.

It may be prescribed long term if the benefits outweigh the possible risks. If someone is taking it in their own, it’s probably better to talk to their doc about it. My understanding is that it’s safe but can have long term effects and needs to be stepped down if you stop after taking it a while

Illicit- forbidden, illegal, taboo

Elicit- evoke a response, obtain

I concur with that general rule!

I think when people say to but high quality items, they mean to spend what they’re worth. Getting the most expensive thing doesn’t really guarantee a quality item, but cheaping out makes it much more likely that you’ll end up with something lackluster. Plus, something like sleep can be fairly complicated and is connected to your habits, what you’ve eaten, or schedule, etc., so expecting a single change (pillow) to make a huge difference may not be realistic.

I want to be mildly infuriated, too, but I’m not quite sure what you’re trying to convey

Oxo makes some good stuff. I offer see their products on America’s Test Kitchen at the very least in the running and as winners a decent amount of the time
