Where would society be without the JuiceVoxers to steer us toward greatness?
When I read Vox, I'm like, whoa dude, I bet this is totally like what it was like during the fucking Enlightenment, man.

Dear @voxdotcom: Why don't we, like, make winter summer and fall winter? And just get rid of spring 'cause it's stupid. Think about it, man.

"Why do we need time zones?" <- This is what people who swear they're smarter than you spend time thinking about.

It is pretty amazing when you think about it.

I wish I was a fly on the wall at @voxdotcom's pitch for a second round of funding. Someone better YouTube that.
