It's a good book. Excellent stories, well told. It will go on my bookcase next to Fallen Angels (Niven, Pournelle, & Flynn), and Bimbos of the Death Sun (McCrumb).
My food is problematic.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I know I should Google and find out what a Cheeto is, but my stomach has been very resentful of any food fed it today, so I'm gonna just pretend I know.
I wonder if they're like Cheese Trix. And look! Thought too much about food.
Ow.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Do not Google snacks on a resentful tummy. Cheeto Googling should only be done with a tummy of iron.

It's better to not think of Cheetos as food at all. They're carriers of a neon orange substance that is not actually related to cheese.

Cheetos are an article of faith, one of the mysteries of the universe. One can only understand them by contemplating them, one at a time.

I think I still need to ignore the Cheeto talk. My stomach HATES me right now.
I have to admit that the lol macros still tickle me pink, especially when no animals are involved. Say, perhaps, faultlines instead.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Cheetos: Puffy or crunchy?
I'm partial to the puffy ones myself.
I'm indulging in a regular coke--one of the tiny, 8 oz. bottles and it's very, very good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crunchy! Although, sometimes puffy.
I am my own three stooges act. Watch me trip over my own two feet and kick a can of paint all over a hardwood floor. Watch me run around my house with a bag on my foot trying to find rags to clean up the paint! Oy vey!
Oy vey is right! Did you get it taken care of?
I started doing a cross stitch thing tonight, and I think it gave me a headache. Ah well -- it's not like I was really ever going to finish it anyway.
