This comes from the notes of Charles Darwin, and lists his personal pros and cons to marrying. I’ve never seen a funnier list–and that from a compulsive list maker. ‘Companionship…better than a dog, anyhow’. If someday my kids need convincing to marry, that’s the reason I’m trotting out.
Without being married how did he know it was better than just having a dog???
Wishful thinking? He really sounds like he wants that pro list to fill up.
I’ve tried both - marriage, and having a dog.
I still have the dog.
Ha! That’s funny. Well, I guess the next time you see Darwin you can bring up a point of difference to discuss. He’ll be grateful it’s not on the topic of his bestseller.
