Aging's consolation prize is nostalgia.

The Emoji is the hieroglyphics of the next lost empire.

The Fortune cookie is a double disappointment: poor prophet, worse dessert.

The Frown is distinguished from the frown in that smiles are often misinterpreted, but frowns never.

The Labyrinth is a thing where the easiest way out is up.

The Lottery is, in fact, a curse. If you are lucky, you lose the lottery.

A Mirror is an objective object that objectives us.

Nostalgia is the consolation prize for aging.
