Since most of the population of the world doesn't use
anti-dandruff shampoo (can't afford it), it stands
to reason that there must be a few left. For instance:
My wife can't use it (specifically the ones with
selenium compounds). If she does, she gets these
tiny bright red bumps that slowly grow in size until
they meet and she is bright red all over. Truly amazing
to look at. But since it itches and might cause death
she tries not to do it very often.
My UNIX computer has deamons, but they won't tell me shit.
And a few of my cats are demons but they won't tell me anything
either except when it's time to eat. Do you think Socrates'
daimon told him when it was time to eat?
(Note absence of famously insensitive Socrates drinking joke.
I promised never to tell it again.)
Oh, yes, the topic: I believe those small chocolates I find on my pillow
are put there by chocolate faeries. (They've never told me anything
either; but chocolate, as they say, is universally sufficient.)
