There was an explosion in downtown SF, probably a transformer. Is that violent enough?
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

The evil is this way?

Is it an evil transformer? You know, with plans to take over the world -- or at least northern California?

Hmm. It was next to the Ralph Lauren store, so possibly.

But it's historical bestiality! It's meaningful!
17th c. bestiality: sex and death two distinct parts of the process. 21st c. bestiality: one-stop shopping for sex and death. That's Progress with a capital P.

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

Not to mention Peritonitis.

"Don' be e-scared"
I really meant first American political sex scandal. I'm aware of scarlet letters and such from earlier times. So stop oppressing me. Speaking of, also interesting is David Hackett Fischer's "Albion's Seed."
Narrator's right about the funny clothes and wigs being a thing. Though I understand HBO is doing "John Adams." So maybe some multi-part cable thing could work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My agency tells me there's no market for American history in entertainment.
Didn't Matt and Ben do a TV thing of Zinn's People's History? How'd that go?
