#36: Respectful Smartass Wrapped

HUMOR

Good morning, newsletter fans!

It’s that time of year again when we all start to quantify our lives in yearly roundups and wraps. I don’t know about you, but I simply wouldn’t know who I was or have a lick of ‘self’ if I didn’t have data to remind me what I like, dislike, do, and don’t do. How did anyone exist before they could run every aspect of their lives through glorified excel spreadsheets? Committing myself to tracking my every move and obsessing over hitting certain metrics makes my world go round.

When Spotify reached out to me and asked to do a special wrapped edition for this newsletter, I obviously obliged! Here’s a snippet from their email:

“We usually stick with music and podcasts, but since your newsletter is so ridiculously successful and obviously doesn’t keep you up at night fearing that you’re a failure who’ll never make it, we just had to make an exception!”

You know those Goliath tech companies, always gushing over the little guys who don’t make them any money. What sweethearts!

Without further ado, because I know you’re all dying to see it, I present: the Respectful Smartass Wrapped.

Thanks for reading the newsletter so I actually have something to wrap. You rule and everyone else drools.

Happy Friday! xx
