How to Process Information that Disturbs You to Your Very Core

When I was a kid, I knew a guy who blinked in a way that bothered my mother. He didn’t just blink as he needed to. He’d save his blinks up. If you watched him closely you’d see that he would not blink for a long time, then flutter his eyelashes for a full second. It’s the kind of thing you might not notice at all, but once you do, of more accurately, once my mother did, she wasn’t able to think about anything else.

She modeled proper behavior for me and my brothers by never bringing it up to my friend for fear of embarrassing him. Instead, she just complained endlessly about it when he was not around. Now here I am criticizing her on a website I know for a fact she has never read. A new generation learns from the one previous.

Note from Missy: Speaking of how Jenkins blinks, I kind of can’t believe we still have this website.
