You have "Whatever you're doing, it's not as important as feeding the dog" listed twice. FYI.

Thanks. I've corrected it.

I like "love is an emotion, not a superpower." I think I've mostly got that one internalized, but a reminder is useful now and then.

Is "That's okay, I don't remember your name either" new? What I'm recalling, from years ago, is "Hi. I can't remember your name either" which is slightly different, but I may be misremembering, or thinking it was one of yours when it was someone's .sig line or something. But the visual memory is of that in your calligraphy, with Marc Glasser wearing it.

"Love is an emotion, not a superpower" is specifically a reply to "The Secret of NIMH" and "Spirited Away", but I agree that it has general application.

You're right about "That's ok, I don't remember your name either". I did the second version because a re-seller really wanted it, and having done it, I thought I might as well put it in the catalogue.

I prefer "ok", but my spellchecker doesn't like it. Is there a consensus about "ok" vs. "okay"?

[gildedacorn.livejournal.com]

I prefer "okay" in actual writing/prose, but "ok" is certainly all right for a button, especially if there are space issues.

[enegim.livejournal.com]

I much prefer "OK" to "okay."

[nancylebov.livejournal.com]

How about "ok"?

[enegim.livejournal.com]

*shudder*

[nancylebov.livejournal.com]

That's a reaction I find hard to imagine. What's the difference between "ok" and "OK" for you?

For me, I think "OK" is a little too loud for conversational use.

[enegim.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. Maybe because "ok" looks like an incomplete word, whereas "OK" looks like an acceptable abbreviation? Weird, I know, but I really did have an "ugh!" instant reaction to the question.

The Talmud/Midrash one is a classic, Nancy. A classic. :)
