NIECE: "Auntie Ayn, do you want to help me bake cookies?"

AYN RAND: "Help? A self-made woman does not need help to indulge her pitiable domesticity. Not only will you not have my 'help', but if and when you bake those cookies, you should not give them away in misguided altruism. DO NOT GIVE AWAY YOUR LABOR AND LET THE IRRESPONSIBLE LEECH FROM YOUR INITIATIVE. You will build a stand and sell those cookies lest your surrender your self-respect to the pathetic conventions of our Christianized morality."

1) You two are great and I look forward to the day when you roam the media landscape on an iron chariot crafted from the wreckage of your competitors.

2) This reminds me of how I'm waiting for media journalists to notice how a little website by the name of PostBourgie helped spawn the media careers of so many internet favorites.

I find Edna even more sympathetic now that a considerable chunk of my social circle consists of teachers. They do so much work! And they get so much shit for it.

The only thing this reminds me of is the time in college and I interviewed a guy who called himself an Objectivist on his application, and spent the next 30 minutes extolling the virtues of selfishness.

It was, you know, a good time.

Wait, this is "dirtbag" Teddy Roosevelt? Seems pretty much like the real thing.
