Sneezing is still free

“The only truly pleasurable thing you can do that is still free is sneezing.” — Paul Burton I thought that was a true epiphany. And, although I try to argue every point, on this one, I could not. I can think of one other thing, but depending on where you do it, it could get expensive.
