    What can I say? I’m competitive
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I thought you might ask! My dad is super competitive and, quite frankly, a cheat at most games (I know! We are soooo different!). One family game of boggle in the 1980s, pre Google, He was determined to add gravyman (which would have been a huge pointer) into the OED. He had a backstory that lasted about 30 minutes in the telling. Since then, every scrabble or boggle game he’s ever played have included efforts to make gravyman a legit word. So far the OED have not come calling
