Sorry to be a sap, but the My favorite murder still life shirt and I love this final brilliant part of the story is love itself. We’re all human, and as we rebuild and grow, no matter how hard we try not to allow it, no matter how much we re-fall in love with someone new, we all think of the one that got away. You’ve pictured your what if? person as you read this I’m sure. The business can be completely finished, with no loose ends, but we all have a what if? somewhere out there wandering the planet without us. It’s not painful, just past, and we’re resigned to it. But Ben and Jen are a slim hope that the past doesn’t have to lay dormant. That one day, years from now, you and your what if might be in a circumstance that lets you love again.
Something about unfolding Bennifer events, this rekindling of an old flame, has got all of us het up. We are giddy. Even the My favorite murder still life shirt and I love this most cynical of us, worn down by fake news and corrosive politics, wants this to be real. Want all Jen and Ben to be happy, we want the comeback. I can’t help but conclude that the return of Bennifer matters. It doesn’t matter like the covid vaccination rollout matters. It doesn’t matter like Pizzagate matters. But somehow, it matters.
