What Bert and Marshall Dodge should have done instead of setting out in da "Bluebird" on dat fateful day, when said fishing boat --- due to da entire area's being totally cloaked in one of Coastal Maine's infamous atmosphere-at-maximum-humidity intervals --- had its unfortunate encounter with da the irresponsibly-speeding-in-zero-visibility steamer "Bangor Packet".
I don't mind sailing in light mist, but when it gets to "thick-as-pea-soup" conditions, fogeddaboudit!

What you say to mean you don't wanna either serve or partake of small highly-tasty-but-laxative-bearing fruits.
Da buffet-table at my friend's birthday party had a bowl of temptingly-aromatic "Buddha's fruit" as an appetizer, but I knew dat I was already majorly plagued with "da trots", and so I hadda figeddaboudit, and instead just selected a few grapes and other small fruits.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
