The arc is not unique, but it is always weirdly funny in the same way a treadmill is funny when someone insists they ran a marathon because they stood near it and shouted tips about incline while the other person actually pressed start and kept pressing start every payday for nearly a decade, then arrived with a down payment, a funded emergency kit, and the kind of boring spreadsheet that makes parents quietly proud and siblings invent new math about shared learning and the inheritance of the stock market.
