When his wife makes a yummy breakfast, how does he compliment it? "Thank you dear, that was a stunning meal. Simply exquisite."
What about when his kids were young, and they begged him for sugar-saturated cereal at the store?
Child: "I want it Dad, I want it!!"
Professor Cook: "Now, children, you must forward a more compelling argument which consists of more than the fact that you want it. What is the true meaning of want anyway?"
How does he get his kicks? I already know that he gets giddy from reading dense philosophical and religious texts; he annotates them until the pages thin from the impact of his excited pen. But what else is he passionate about? What else gets his adrenaline going? Perhaps a perfectly golden slice of toast. He was comparing a philosophical principle to a toaster today after all. Or perhaps he enjoys hot cocoa by the fire, accompanied by some light reading- Moby Dick or the Encyclopedia.
Or, maybe he spends his free time on XBOX-Live, slaughtering zombies while downing energy drinks and listening to Lil Wayne's most explicit hit singles. I will never know.
