Whilst having sushi with my Unit, she mentioned a protest she had read about -- somewhere, in another country, people protesting over the building of a shopping mall in the ONE remaining park the place had. "It's in Istanbul, I think," she said.
Fast-forward to the next morning, she shouts from the next room: "Yep, it's Istanbul! Where is Istanbul?"
Me: "I don't know, but it was once Constantinople."
Her: "Very funny."
Me: "I've been waiting since last night to use that joke."
FYI, Istanbul is in Turkey. And on a more serious note, here is the protest that is happening. You should read it.
