On Saturday morning I received the following text from my dear Valentine, who was out running errands: "Girl Scouts at Walmart. Want cookies?"
I had a flashback to Latin class, where we learned about the word "num" and the suffix "ne," which you use when phrasing a question to show you expect a negative or a positive response.
"Want cookies?" obviously would qualify for the "-ne." Really, who in the history of the universe has ever answered "no" to this one?
