Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

All is well that ends in pizza.

3M is not cool. 3M is a soulless multinational that strives to inflict mediocrity on all its employees. It pisses me off no end that I worked for them for 20+ years.

I worked for them for three months, back in '96. Then my contract was up and I didn't. Had some good focaccia bread based sandwiches in the commissary, first focaccia I ever had, really.

Or was that Scotch tape?

Scotch tape is 3M. The McKnight family being scottish and all.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

When you go past the NECCO building in Boston, it used to smell like Necco wafers (I don't think they make them there any more). When you go past the Keebler factory in suburban Cincinnati, it smells like chocolate cakes.

When you go past a 3M plant, does it smell like tape? glue? new paper smell (which is awful for the record, thank you Berlin NH paper mills).

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

When you go past the NECCO building in Boston, it used to smell like Necco wafers (I don't think they make them there any more). When you go past the Keebler factory in suburban Cincinnati, it smells like chocolate cakes.

When you enter Battle Creek, MI, you can smell cereal. (the Kelloggs factory is there)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The Crystal plant smells like hot sauce. I don't drive past it on my way to work anymore, more's the pity. That used to really help me wake up in the morning.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I drive past a Bud plant every day. It's disgusting.

If I only had a brain...

My home town smelled like the Purina pet food plant. Ewww.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When you enter Bear Creek, WI, you can smell sauerkraut. (But only during and shortly after the cabbage harvest.)

You used to be able to smell cow shit all around where I grew up. But hardly any farmers in the area have cows anymore.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

My office is near a chocolate factory. It smells like chocolate all time, especially during the winter. And then it smells like hot chocolate.
