I was gonna say. Losing a job sucks anytime, but three days before Christmas. I'm so sorry.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I suppose the good thing is that I don't have to work over Christmas.
And it will be the first New Year's Eve for 7 Years that I will not have to work. Which will inevietably lead to much anxiety in living up to my nickname.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
but your Bars and Liquor Laws are so different, it'd probably be like going back to school learning it all again!
And vary from state to state.

Three days before Christmas? That's just EVIL.
My sympathies.

Better get that visa now, while the department of homeland security is all confused. Buncha bastards, are they.

Ah, see that part I would like! I could be all impressing of the laydeez with my inter-state liquor-law knowledge and stuff.
Hmmm. Actually...I could move to the states and embark upon a mission to bring Cider to the masses. It seemed so hardly-existent when I was over there....
Though Fury would not approve. Clever bastard out-funnied me with his Cider jokes at the W&H AR. Guess he's more of a Beer guy.

Indeed.
I wish I could have taken Allyson with me to my Fateful Meeting today. She could have sat opposite the EvilUberBoss and snarked him to death... and I would have left with a promotion.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
God, no! Quick, someone act like a moron, stat!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I love the work Minear did on Buffy. How about you guiys?
