I believe teenagers accept that time is neither an event nor a thing, and thus is not itself measurable. So why ask them to do anything? “Drew?” (the pitch of my question indicates I want a reaction now). SILENCE. “Drew??” SILENCE. “Drew??” “Just a sec…” Now I ask you, is a “sec” in teenage years [...]
