1. “Consider the Lobster”: well written but stupid. a attempted moral argument that says (in a roundabout “i’m not saying anything” way) that eating lobsters may be bad b/c they have a nervous system & feel pain. Despite being absurdly long, it shies away from such questions as “what is bad?” & “what is good?” until the final paragraph, when it says such questions are beyond the purview of the essay

2. “How Tracy Austin Broke My Heart": Perhaps the best sports essay i’ve ever read and certainly the best book review. Funny enough, the thesis of this essay applies best to hockey despite never being mentioned. I feel Connor McDavid can only be understood in the context of this essay.
