It turns out Ponce De Leon was way off track: the fountain of youth was to be found flowing from a coffee urn and a bottle of Jager.
The experts tell us that in developmental psych, the term “parallel play” signifies the manner in which young children, typically under 3 years old, play alone – in their own world – even as each of them are part of a large group. They are not fully socialized yet and, according to this whynatte drinker, they still reside in a magical world of their own imaginings – free of the burdensome expectations of “talking” and “playing” with other people.
How, you may ask, can I taste of that freedom now that I’m in my twenties, well on my way in this inexorable march of time and decrepitude? The answer – if one peruses this photo of Jesse, two guys I don’t know, and Andy – should be clear:
Drink Whynatte.
No one – not Jesse, those two guys I don’t know, or even Andy – seem to be aware of the others. Not one of these pictured Whynatte drinkers gives a rat’s dirty parts about anyone else – having lost track of their surroundings, of their girlfriends and wives, and of their nettlesome need to “socialize.”
They are truly young again – in a magical world of their thoughts and feelings – free to splash in the fountain of Whynatte.

Well said, Jacob. It’s nice to have someone looking at these seemingly average photos, and to have them see so much more. Indeed, in that moment I was drinking my Whynatte, I was in another place. For that moment, I was prancing through fields of latte flowers like I had pranced as a young child.
Thank you, Jacob.
I can understand where you were WHEN you were drinking your WhyNatte.
But where the hell were you before to earn those beads, you jezebel?
You are kind Jesse. No photo is average though. The story is always there, waiting to be recognized – like a little lost cat in the rain, purring plaintively.
amen, Jacob. judykuniansky.com
