Stranger-Danger Myth 

The belief that anybody that you don't know can and will do you harm, given the chance. This is often hammered into the minds of anyone older than the age of 2, and is meant to be used as an anti-kiddy diddler mechanism. Unfortunately, this is usually ineffective, as most diddlers-to-be are friends of the soon-to-be-diddled kiddy's family, or otherwise acquainted with the diddlee.
Furthermore, this myth can cause racism,xenophobia,paranoia, and other traits commonly expressed by home-schooled children.
You can thank the Stranger-Danger Myth for the behavior of most kids up to the age of 10 regarding strangers.

Sunset Myth 

I was never looking for a fairytale, just to feel a little less alone.

You have robbed me of all heart and mind and I love you sweet bandit of my soul.
I am no Judy, I am done with pie.
Will our garden be wonderphil, or will it be full of lost dreams and tea?

I do forgive you, but I demand more from life. It's your call: Friend or Wife?
If this was just a sunset myth, the cost of enduring cruelty was worth the taste of my eternal flame.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
