    My partner and I met on okcupid where one of the “match” questions is “Would you rather live in good times or interesting times?” Just about everyone (including him) answered “interesting times” and I had posted a little comment on it saying something along the lines of “I feel like people are not actually thinking through the implications of this.”

    Now whenever something “interesting” but shitty happens (see: the pandemic) I say, “remember when everyone on okcupid said they’d rather live through ‘interesting’ times…?” I’d prefer to just read about it in the history books.
