Addequate

Take, for example, this rocket launch https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5760/30397203786_e6ff96f2b7_k.jpg . The rocket of course I know is Russian but the support structure just looks Russian. If you told me that support structure was of American design I probably wouldn't believe you.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a word or pair of words that approximates the sentiment "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it". Best I can do is Autopathic, which yields kind of a distant and vague metaphor, but I'm hoping you linguistic wizards can churn up something better.

Thanks, Adequate

There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.

The sea in storm is used to describe Devi repeatedly and there's the more obvious shipwreck.

A moonless night comes up several times as well throughout.

Who's the gentle man? I don't think it's Kvothe as he's angry and violent at the drop of a hat.

I've checked a couple dozen different stores and have found 0 pickled eggs. I could make my own but I'm pretty impatient (and lack a big enough jar). Hopefully somebody knows a place in the Federal Way area, but really anywhere would be good. Thanks!
