A door isn’t a door if you don’t close it properly.
Why not?
Because then it’s a jar.

新店一家牙醫診所徵助理,限女性;應徵電話,他們第一句問,年齡超過二十五歲嗎?如果答案是「超過」,立即甩電話。牙醫助理上班穿短裙、高跟鞋,病人來看診,牙醫送許多贈品,如牙膏、牙刷等等。
其來有自:沒有德也要有術,可是看過一次的人很少去第二次,因為牙醫技術很差。連最簡單的洗牙,好像在刮肉。加上,看牙醫的人難免有點緊張,小姐穿高跟鞋走來走去,聲音很刺耳。

Is it true that D J Trump has donated millions to NAMBLA, an organization promoting pedophilia and pederasty? Could be, could not be, we have no way of knowing until he releases his tax returns. What's taking so long?

 the more advanced the athlete, the less of a role practice plays….  within an Olympic team tiny differences in performance are unlikely to be the result of training: these athletes train together, with the same coach, day in and day out. Those milliseconds come from somewhere else. "
I never tell my students “practice makes perfect.” Nobody’s perfect, nobody speaks their own language perfectly, and if you think you have to be perfect, you can never open your mouth. I used to tell my students, “practice makes progress,” but I’ve learned better now. If practice made progress, this lady I know would be an opera goddess, but no matter how much she sings, she always sounds like a mental patient receiving dental care without anesthesia.

中正堂魚池岸,兩三歲男童狂哭。
母親說,「那是給魚吃的,不是給你吃的。」
父親說,「你又不是魚,你吃魚飼料幹嘛?來來來,吃糖果,不要吃魚吃的東西。」
By the fishpond at CKS Memorial, a toddler crying wildly.
Mother: That’s food for the fish, it’s not for you.
Father: You’re not a fish, why would you eat fish food? Never mind, have some candy, don’t eat fish food.

蔡英文要作秀,向原住民道歉:當然,意思是摸黑國民黨。
但是聽說族人不高興,因為參加典禮時,禮刀不准帶進去。自古,「群臣侍殿上者不得持尺寸之兵」,有安全考量。但是進去見總統的代表都是精挑細選的,應該沒有問題,似乎可以想個權變之法,例如刀鞘用布條封住,殿上不許拔刀。男子盛裝不帶刀,真的有點怪怪的。
