For some lunches people have, they could even be the same thread.

Well, I must bid my desk adieu.

You'd think that would be a good thing.

I'm getting the pig!

Poor shrift. Try not to murder anyone. The props are not weapons.

I work in a brewery. Some days it smells like rancid/sour beer, some days it smells like hops, today it smells like spaghetti.

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

My neighbourhood smells like the ocean (not in a bad way) but I can only tell when I'm driving in from the valley. Sometimes it smells like jasmine, but that's tended to be scarily overpowering. The worst normal (non-disaster) smell is passing the Budweiser brewery. Blech. The hops, I guess -- like yeast, but mega-oppressive.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The hops, I guess -- like yeast, but mega-oppressive.

Nah, hops are strong-smelling, but herby-grassy. The overpowering brewery funk of which you speak is dying yeast and spent grains and fermentative microbial farts.

(also, I have yet to be convinced that they let hops anywhere near Budweiser.)

Then how come Nicole's place doesn't smell horrible like Bud?

Okay, wait, maybe the beer's not horrible like Bud.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In college, I remember arguing with my friend's mom when she would say we smelled "like a brewery" on a Saturday morning. Glad to know I was right -- I'm sure we smelled like a bar, but it's not the same!

Do they do the bottling/canning at the brewery? Maybe you smelled like that room.
