I feel like the word BRAVE gets kind of obnoxiously tossed around a bit too much these days. Tried a new fruit? Congrats! You’re so brave! You wore leggings as pants? Super brave! I actually sometimes want to pull out my best Inigo Montoya and scream from the rooftops, “You keep using that word! I do not think it means what you think it means!” Wait…it’s brave to scream from rooftops, right?
“Dark please.” I said.
“Dark? That’s a brave move!” said the random stranger.
BRAVE?
Really?
I mean, It’s basically just like climbing Everest.
Right?
