So I had to run some errands today and

it was the first time I went to a shopping mall since before the start of covid, and I was pleasantly surprised at how people were all masked and following social distancing.

So I am in Crate and Barrel and a mother is there with her two kids, a little girl, maybe five or six and her younger brother, who was in a stroller. They are swooning over some books on a sale rack, and the girl says to her mother, pretty loudly, "Mommy, what does 'No malarkey' mean?"

"Where did you hear that?" Mother asks back

Little girl "Joe Biden says that, Mommy and he's the president"

"He IS the President, now, isn't he?" the mother says, almost with glee.

"It means 'no bullshit" quipped the little boy in the stroller.
