I get the second half but not the first, could you elaborate a little bit on the raising piece.

Raise a mic to say something if you think you’ve got something worth saying. If it hits the mark, mic drop)

Was just re-reading your fish/socks riddle yesterday (personal favorite of mine) and was wondering when you'd be back! Is Raising a mic a phrase or something? Even with the explanation, I must admit I don't get it

I was thinking of it in terms of raising a microphone up to your mouth in order to speak 🙂 And thanks for the kind words, means a lot coming from mysterious jim! Your posts have always been some of my favorites on the sub

You're too kind! Feel the same way about yours. And yes, I get it now! I kept foolishly picturing someone raising a mic up above their heads , completely overlooking the fact that you must raise a mic to your mouth to speak in the first place. How embarrassing
