"Some were simply stolid, some thought it was a jest and laughed at me. I had the hardest task in the world to keep my hands off their pretty laughing faces. It was a foolish impulse, but the devil begotten of fear and blind anger was ill curbed and still eager to take advantage of my perplexity."
“You really think Adri’s going to let me go now just because I can buy my own dress? She would probably tear it off me and try to resell the buttons.”
“Well—fine, we won’t tell her about the dress or about going to the ball. You don’t have to go with them. You’re better than them. You’re valuable.”
Iko’s fan was whirring like mad as if her processor could barely keep up with all these revelations. “Immune to letumosis. My stars, you could be a celebrity because of this!”

Brother and sister
“My favorite movie is Deadpool, and my lucky number is eleven.”
“Your jersey number?”
His eyes widen. “Yeah. I’m surprised you know that.”
“Not as surprised as I am that you’re rattling off random information all of a sudden.”
He shrugs. “Just feels like that’s the kind of stuff a sister should know about her brother. You know, if we’re sharing.”

Mucoid (clear and white) is normally of little consequence and suggests that no infection is present.Yellow, green or brown sputum normally indicates infection. Mucopurulent sputum is generally caused by a viral infection and does not require automatic referral.
Haemoptysis can either be rust coloured (pneumonia), pink tinged (left ventricular failure) or dark red (carcinoma). Occasionally, patients can produce sputum with bright red blood as one-off events. This is due to the force of coughing causing a blood vessel to rupture. This is non-serious and does not require automatic referral
Thin and frothy suggests left ventricular failure.
Thick, mucoid to yellow can suggest asthma.
Offensive foul-smelling sputum suggests either bronchiectasis or lung abscess.
A cough that is worse in the morning may suggest upper airways cough syndrome, bronchiectasis or chronic bronchitis.
But hold up for a minute: who is this “we” that’s always turning up in
critical writing? We is an escape hatch. We is cheap. We is a way of simultaneously sloughing off personal responsibility and taking on the mantle of easy authority. It’s the voice of the middlebrow male critic, the one who truly believes he knows how everyone else should think. We is corrupt. We is make-believe. The real question is this: can I love the art but hate the artist? Can you?
When I say “we,” I mean I. I mean you.
