Doc Binks is now in the possession of twins, as in a pair of lives he is responsible for. I would've guessed that of all the ways fatherhood could've changed him, it would've made him less prone to hand me a nasty olive to eat just to see how I'd react. In his defense, he did tell me it was nasty before demanding that I eat it.
Moi: I don't want to. It won't taste good.
Binks: But I want to see how you'd react.

Speaking of fatherhood....
Whitecastle: Children cost a lot of money. You've got to get a new house, new car, 2 strollers, seats, cribs...
Moi: You do know that the baby won't be operating any of this, right? These are things for you.
Whitecastle: Well, I know that [my wife] isn't fitting in that stroller. That's for the baby.
Moi: People in other parts of the world do without all these things and they seem OK.
Whitecastle: You mean those people who go without food and go without vaccines?
Moi: You mean people who go without autism.
