In the 80's and nineties, sociologists identified a subpopulation of the Baby Boom generation consisting of childless couples both engaged in primarily professional occupations. Designated by the acronym DINK ( Double Income No Kids), this group had substantial disposable income and heped drive the luxury markets of the time.
Approximately 20 years later, the DINK has evolved into the RISK ( Reduced Income Several Kids) and from the luxury standpoint is merely indisposed.

"I had an online date with this girl who looked like she shopped in her grandma's closet."
"' Her Grandma's Closet', is that one of those kitschy second hand stores?" I hate that shit.
" We all do, except that would have been a major step up. I'm talking literally, here. Girl was a total grandvestite. I can still smell the mothballs."

Man 1: What's up? Ain't seen you around the plant much lately.
Man 2: And you won't either. I've undergone a lifestyle upgrade. My dial set to chill and froze in that position. I'm ridin' the stationary wave of a permanent staycation.
Man 2's wife (under her breath): Uh huh. Only wave that fool's likely to ride is when I wave his lazy, unemployed ass goodbye.

The phenomenon, reported exclusively by frustrated dieters, of weighing more after a full evacuation.

Later on he resolved to remove nearly all anti-matter from his daily menu.

First voice: A bigot that don't discriminate?? Well, then he ain't no bigot is he?
Second voice (same person, different personality): Indeed not. He is, in fact, a misanthrope. An enjoyable paradox, n'est-ce pas?
