Daniel links peanuts with nipples and breast feeding deprivation. Stubborn, principled, strong-willed. Rules unmoored from principle. Inventing rules during Covid. Laws as authority. Principled people are often sad and lonely compared to pragmatists. Nuisance in the park discussed. Lists of prohibited activities…can you do something not on the list? Banning things is simpler than having nuanced rules eg bus lanes. Challenging the rules. Hiding behind rules to make money in parking rules. Danger of obeying rules in the Holocaust. Importance of being irreverent and mocking stupid rules and not just getting angry. Daniel pays corkage at the Trafalgar Tavern and negotiates corkage at the Delaunay for 7 bottles of German Riesling. Daniel gets upset when Sarah usurps his authority and uses Newton’s second law to get the upper hand and so much more.
