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

I didn't understand why people might be so bottled-water-addicted till I drank out of the tap in LA. LA tap water is just -- wrong. It just doesn't taste like something I want to drink.

So I feel okay with drinking my tap water, and I feel okay with other people needing bottled water, if that's what comes out of their taps.

I open recalcitrant jars/bottles by piercing the vacuum seal with an awl. It leaves a hole in the top, but, makes untwisting said top a lot easier.

Tom, don't worry. You wouldn't be able to go to work on Sunday. The whole of the northeast will be shut down in a blizzard, hadn't you heard? Buy your oreos/toilet paper/milk now!!

Cut off the neck with a samurai sword.

Oh, man, someone got attacked with a samurai sword here last night. V. odd.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

This is work that needs to be done, and they have already sent out email saying that they will put people up in hotels if they have to. In any event, I live three subway stops away, so getting to work won't be a problem.

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

Coding and Sleeping

Back in December when we had some snow here, there were people talking about stocking up supplies, and the grocery stores were wiped out with a forecast of like 4-6" of snow. It was weird, I mean that's not going to snow you in. Maybe I remember it wrong, but it seemed like a few years ago, 4-6" of snow wasn't a big deal.

You won't die. Not if you wear Samurai armor.

(I saw an exhibit of samurai swords last year at the Art Institute. They were really cool.)

Maybe I should just buy new soda.

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