“Wow you’re good at computers”

“I just click everything”

“But how did you know which menu it was?”

“I just click everything”

“But then you were able to find the correct thing in the drop-down”

“How did you learn the new system so fast?”

“I just click everything”

“You must have some deep systems knowledge”

“I just click everything”

I choose my better self.
