It’s time I propose a toast…
Earlier tonight, at Mari and Evelyn’s housewarming party…
This toast is a little nerdy, so you’ll have to excuse me.
Groans and laughs of expectation
There’s an old saying that goes “May your house always be too small to hold all your friends.”
Aww.
Now as we know from thermodynamics:
Laughter
Given a constant volume…
I gesture to the living room…
and a growing number of friends…
…which is absolutely filled with people.
The only way to keep the pressure down is to keep the temperature down.
So I say:
“May your house never explode by knowing only cool people”
The half of the room that gets it immediately laughs. The other half soon follows.
To Mari and Evelyn!
Cheers.
( The best response, moments later, came from Patrick:
Barak, that was absolute zero.
Laughs and groans )
