Hard not to look like an asshole when you whip this out in public. But who cares! It’s a classic for a reason. Whitman’s prose flows gentle, like floating beachgrass on bright ocean waves. Or whatever.
Arguably the most consistent way to hang out with friends at least once a week. So many venues have them. Activity! Camaraderie! And you usually learn something.
Thursday is the best night for this, I think. Gives you something to look forward to other than the weekend.
