As cozy creatures of habit, we duvet-cuddling, den-dwelling humans have a natural resistance to change.

I remember when it was cool to smoke cigarettes. I even remember when it was cool to use the word “cool.” Back when my middle-school played Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” in the lunch room and nobody thought it might have dirty connotations. Macaulay Caulkin was still Home Alone and the Never Land Ranch would just be another place to smoke pot.
