I once pirated a book because I didn't want to get it from another room.

This is exactly what I do. I have like 30 identical pairs of socks. They just get dumped in a pile in my sock drawer, and I grab two off the top of the pile every day.

I do this, except for the part where they're all identical.

I dated a girl who did this. I asked why her socks were always mismatched. She looked at me like it should be obvious, and said β€œI pull two out of the drawer. If they match, I know I’m going to have a good day.” I said she could just match her socks, and then she’d have a good day every day. But apparently that was missing the point.
