"Storm of the Century" Laura: Weather station says we're in for the "Storm of the Century". Adam: How can they say that? We're barely into "the century". Do you think if they could predict 89 years into the future, they'd be wasting their time on weather? I'm tired of the hyperbole and the marketing spin. Why must everything be declared in such extremes? "Storm of the Century". Worst episode ever". "Best burger in the universe". We're numbing ourselves to reality. We're teaching our children that things only matter if they're at the very top or the very bottom! What about the nobility of "good enough"? Clayton: Hey, dad, you're wearing the Christmas present I have you. Adam: It's also noble to have the courage to tell the truth.
