Kyle, I hope you understand by now that I love your writing. But even you have outdone yourself with this one, Sir. There is just SO much that is SO interesting. And all so beautifully expressed. Truth is though, I was in a bit of a frenetic moment so am guilty of scanning quite a lot of it. I REALLY look forward to re-indulging with it all, at a better level of focus. But... all previously-mentioned accolades aside, I have to say the quintessence, and the absolute kicker of the whole thing, pour moi, is the gender neutral bathroom piece you quietly recommend for a Nobel Prize in Literature. (Please forward your nominating letter to the Nobel committee, in case you need an extra signature, okay?) That tiny, brilliantly-crafted sentence has had me laughing and giggling and chuckling and sending it to friends ever since. Thank you for boiling down our complex modern lives into their most important constituent elements - in this case most simply put as poo!
