Yes, Frosty, I know it well. Was it Descartes who started a book with "common sense is the widest distributed thing in the world, since no one is asking for more?" 

Common is like ordinary, from "ordo". Something that is ordinary isn't not "special" like some want it to be. It is, to be sure, quotidian, from the Latin of "everyday". Nothing wrong with everyday nor is there anything wrong with "ordered". 

Quoting Descartes to me won't spark a thought. I've never read his work. Wait, he didn't write sci fi did he?

I'm getting the feeling we both enjoy logophilia.

17th century French philosopher, best known for his aphorism “Cogito ergo sum” = “I think, therefore I am.”

(This is usually misunderstood as meaning that thinking is the cause of being. In fact, Descartes was articulating the fact that even if everything else that he could perceive was an unreal illusion, the one thing he could say with certainty was that there was at very least some being that was able to think about these things. In that context, a better interpretation might be “I think, therefore I exist as a being capable of thought.”

Of course, the lesser known philosopher DesHorse may have written it a year earlier. But people usually say Descartes said it first
 

but then again I may be putting Descartes before DesHorse.

Cogito ergo sum I recognize and get . . . I think.

A more modern version, I drink therefor I'm going to rest here.

This is for anyone who hasn't seen it on the news yet. This raccoon fell through the ceiling in a liquor store in Virginia, went on a "Disney raccoon rampage" drank some liquor and passed out in the bathroom. The animal rescue folks didn't actually need gloves to handle it it was out like a light. It went back to sober up and detox under medical care.

When i was in the Army i woke up in that exact place a few times. 

I passed out one night in the latrine stall, the next morning my room mate found me and kicked me awake to go to formation. When i woke up i raised up real fast and cracked the middle of my forehead on the bottom of the divider between the stalls. I had to hurry up and get dressed and when i fell out to formation i still had blood running down my face. My squad leader sent me to the medic. Basically put a bandaid on it and called me an idiot. 

My grandma used to say "sittin' is cheaper than standin'". That meant go ahead and sit down and have a rest.
