never_too_late
epitome of incomprehensibility Dad pokes his head in the dining room to wish me goodnight.

Me, after returning his greeting: "I'm almost done the assignment."

Dad, with a thumbs-up gesture: "After that, read something relaxing. Like Proto-Indo-European."

I make a face.

My brother from the kitchen, where he's washing dishes, "It's too late."

Dad: "It's never to late for Proto-Indo-European."
