Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There's got to be some commercial label you can buy in a store, print on, and cut out. Got to!

Uncoincidentally, yes.

That's just....I don't know. For some reason I have a hard time imagining a whole hand bruise.Yes, even with the pictures. My brain wants to call my eyes liars. Fingers, sure, knuckles, yeah. But a whole hand? But then, I'm unversed in the whole grappling/sparring/striking thing.

Or could you not tell?

Couldn't tell. HOWEVER, she showed a lack of creativity, flexibility and hell, initiative, so which doesn't bode well for her teaching skills.

So they didn't get the memo that they were supposed to teach gym?

I'm missing the joke. I hate it when I miss the joke. Please to explain?

It's something along the lines of, "Those who can't do, teach. Those who can't teach, teach gym." I think?

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

The advantage these have over the commercial labels I'm familiar with is that they come off cleanly. Also, they're slick. To the touch, I mean.

For some reason I have a hard time imagining a whole hand bruise.

See, I was there, getting slapped repeatedly ON MY INNER THIGH (I'm never having sex again, am I?) and it didn't occur to me that I'd end up with that clear forensic evidence in broken blood vessels.

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

When the water pressure at the sewerage & Water Board is low, that's bad.

When I am the only person answering phones in the building when that happens, really bad. Because I don't know anything. Seriously. Not a thing.

Mmmm, company-paid-for lunch. They got Italian from Fazoli's (a fast-food Italian place, for those unfamiliar). The last time I was there it was a disappointment, but the fettucini Alfredo actually has flavor, and you can taste garlic in the lasagna. I'm impressed.

What is even happening?

So they didn't get the memo that they were supposed to teach gym?

I'm missing the joke. I hate it when I miss the joke. Please to explain?

It's something along the lines of, "Those who can't do, teach. Those who can't teach, teach gym." I think?

Almost. The old saw is "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach." The add on to that is, "And those who can't teach, teach gym."

Suh-weet, msbelle! Thanks -- they are even civilised enough to sell 3G skins, so my order's larger than it would have been at iPodstyle. That'll larn 'em.

You know, merchandising for movies, etc, should get into removable iPod skins. I'd love a Batman Begins set.
