I LIKE TO KEEP PEOPLE GROUNDED.

GEE… ARE ALL THOSE YOUR AWARDS?
YES. "MAN OF THE DECADE." "MOST INFLUENTIAL." "HALL OF FAME"... I THINK I’VE WON EVERY AWARD IN MY FIELD.
WELL, AWARDS ARE A VALIDATION OF ONE’S ACHIEVEMENT. AN ASSURANCE THAT ONE WILL BE REMEMBERED LONG AFTER ONE’S PASSING.

I ACCIDENTALLY DROVE TOO CLOSE TO THE BIKE LANE YESTERDAY AND THIS CYCLIST SPIT ON MY WINDSHIELD.
WELL, THAT'S DISAPPOINTING.
ISN'T IT?
YEAH. HE SHOULD HAVE SMASHED IT WITH HIS BIKE LOCK.
NOT WHAT I WAS THINKING.
DID HE AT LEAST REMIND YOU THAT YOU'RE AN INFERIOR NOTHING?
