My girlfriend dared send me a gift package, so I responded with a counter-package four times larger to assert dominance

American Exceptionalism is a disease and I am symptomatic

@lety great, now I'm going to have to send my partner something. Thanks Obama.
@lety American Exceptionalism is presenting itself in the negative direction lately. Thanks for going positive.
@lety The only problem is that at this growth rate, it will only take about 45 iterations for the gift package to become as large as the observable universe. So that's yet another end-of-the-world scenario to worry about. Although I suppose we can all just live inside the package once it gets big enough.
@ygor @lety
Perhaps we already do?
