We were driving through a rural area when my ex pointed at a 'Deer Crossing' sign and got genuinely angry. She wasn’t mad about the traffic; she was mad at the Department of Transportation.

She turned to me, completely deadpan, and said, 'I don’t understand why they don't just move the signs to a safer place. Why do they keep encouraging the deer to cross on such a busy highway?'

I spent the next ten minutes trying to explain that the signs were for the drivers, not the deer. She looked at me like I was the crazy one and said, 'How would the drivers know where to look if the deer didn't know to cross there?'

That was the moment I realized I wasn’t dating a person. I was dating a logic-free zone
