There’s that common saying of “There’s no such thing as a stupid question.” While, at first, it takes some time to understand. Inside the classroom, asking questions is the best way to gain knowledge. At work, asking questions is the best way to understand how to perform your duties. At home, asking questions is the best way to make sure the family is doing fine.

“Hold on,” I said, as I pushed myself up from the grass. I replied the words in my head one last time before continuing, “Did you just ask if I dream about being a fucking toaster?”
Sasha shot up next to me, frantic to explain herself, “Wait, wait, hold on.”
“A fucking toaster?!”
