What is terrible twos? Never heard this expression.

Terrible threes is arguably worse. They're really getting a sense of self by then, and turn into conniving, cheating, manipulative liars.

Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.
