@tylerweyman w/ @le_xtina   Why You Should Pretend to Be More Humble Than You Are We don’t want to brag, but we’re really good at pretending to be humble. We know how that sounds. But let’s be real—internally, we hype ourselves up. Out loud? We don’t. We try not to. Be so quiet about how great you are, and people will eventually find you and ask you about your greatness.  Then, you can let it rip.   Why This Knife’s Carbon Fiber Handle is a Rarity You Need to Experience [Partner]  Not all knives are created equal. The A2 Badger OTF isn’t just one of Tekto’s most popular automatic knives—it’s a rarity. Its carbon fiber handle isn’t just for looks; it’s lightweight, incredibly strong, and notoriously difficult to produce. Hence, the rarity. Add lightning-fast deployment, rock-solid reliability, and a blade that means business, and you’ve got a knife built for those who demand the best. Not to mention the compact, pocket-friendly size. It’s the EDC upgrade you didn’t know you needed. Until now.   Use code ELEVATOR for 15% off plus free two-day shipping.   SHOP NOW   Where Did the Phrase “Neither Confirm Nor Deny” Come From? A cowboy rode into town one dusty night. Stopped at the saloon. Bellied up to the bar. A stranger two stools down asked, “Where you from, fella?” No response. The stranger continued, “Someplace troubling, eh? You look like trouble.” The cowboy took off his hat, placed it on his knee, and said, “I can neither confirm nor deny.”  At least that’s our best guess.   The Most Beautiful Train Stations in America, According to Passengers Train stations are perfect places for beauty. People stand around in them, waiting, with nothing to do but look. There’s also the whole fleeting traveler romance thing. That said, beauty isn’t our top priority when it comes to train stations. Promptness is.  We’d rather have an ugly mural than a late train.   How to Make Better Decisions Under Pressure Pressure is inevitable. You’re going to feel it. This interview helps.
