> she's hiding under a sheet with one stripey sock sticking out, a direct echo of "kids reading under the covers when the lights are out." No adult does that.

Have a middlebrow dismissal: my wife does that, and she's 33. She loves hiding.

I do have to say that you seem a bit grouchy for someone who works at a baby blue and pink startup called 'Freckle' :)

I don't "work" at a "startup," I founded the business! I designed every last bit. That's all me, baby. True cheer doesn't come from denying reality, it comes from understanding life and laughing at the joke.

In this case, understanding means understanding narcissism and calling it out (cuz it's opaque to just about everyone else).

PS - Does your wife do it while one cutely pigeon-toed stripey-socked foot hangs out and she fawns and coos and pets your virtual image on her iPhone? No? Then sadly it's not a parallel to the video.

I enjoyed the irony there :)

Apologies for confusing your role at Freckle; "Chief Butt Kicker" was obviously not simple enough for my brain.

Much as I complain about women, I have to admit, this guy is a complete doofus for assuming you "work at" a startup. LOL
