Somewhere along the line, things become things.
You catch wind of these breezy bits and tilt your head like a confused puppy to be all like, “Wait, whaaa -- is that really a thing?” And even your bestie, who lives life under rock, bites his lower lip and unabashedly says, “Yeah, that’s definitely a thing.”

Some things are only things for some people -- things I’ll never subscribe to -- like being a DICKHEAD Arizona lawmaker or giving up cheese fries for Lent
(to think of two off the top of my head).

GOOD THINGS THAT COME FROM BAD THINGS
As as result of Vladimir Putin being a total fucking nightmare, Stoli donated $150,000 to the Russia Freedom Fund and $300,000 to the L.A Gay & Lesbian Center in efforts to fight homophobia and to publicly promote their proud stance in support of gay rights. As a result of that, bars here in Chicago's Boystown lifted their bans on the Vodka brand.
