And everywhere else, too. I...you know someone in their 20s or 30s...I always assume the parents are in some supremacist group, and/or profoundly stupid. I know these people exist, but I can't wrap my brains around the how of it. I think I want to be a Denier Denier.

centripedal force
Hey, junkie--it's centrifugal.
(This is going to turn out to be some cartoon reference that's flown right over my head.)

Not really. Teppy's using the proper term. "Centrifugal" as it turns out is one of those big science lies like "brontosaurus."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
No harshing on the old roomie.
Aww, man, I never meant to harsh on Thomash, but rather on Tucson. Which I've admittedly never been to and might be quite foine, but it's not where you are needing a cooler roomie. Hence the problem.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Centripetal.
For the record.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Seany, speaking of your roommate - that thing he said with the rule in baseball about having to get the runner at first out before you could get another runner out?
TOTAL bullshit.

Not quite. They're two separate (but complementary) forces -- centripetal ("seeking the center") keeps you in orbit, and centrifugal ("running away from the center like Perkins from the sock-smellingest swiss cheese") keeps you from flying straight into the sun. You need both, in balance with each other.
(eta: Teppy's right about the one in question)
