Back in school, one of my first sex ed classes, teacher says: “boys have a factory of sperm in their bodies”.
Me, trying to be funny: “oh so that’s why sometimes there’s smoke coming out of my mouth?”
Thankfully it landed well with the classmates, but the teacher was really worried I took it literally.

I’ve often thought that 90% of success is having enough energy. I wonder why some people have the energy to get out of bed in the morning and do a bunch of shit, while the rest of us struggle to screw up enough energy reserves to want to live another day.

Spoon Theory describes it pretty well IMO.
Some of us only have a handful, others seem to either have enough to serve soup for an army battalion, have many of others’ available to them, or both.
