      We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences.
      Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on.

        Does McSweeney's specialize in pieces where the writer sounds all tough and street about something mundane and lame? The only other piece from there I remember is the one about the thanksgiving gourds and other decorations which I thought was hilarious, but now this new piece just seems like an imitation.

        Education is extremely important.
