Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Mercury poisoning plus shards of broken glass? So glad I'm not possessed of the right equipment....

Even if you were, you'd also have to be possessed of an utter lack of common sense for there to be any danger.

Wrod. We need to put pencil-dick in a death cage match with the guy in Wales who lost the bet. Whichever one beats themselves to death by banging their head on the cage....wins?

I'd say the winner would be the human race.

Ah, Darwin-esque X-posty goodness.

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

Now this is skating commentary.

I'd say they both already have that covered.

I love the subhead for the chocolate roulette wheel! ("Willy Wonka meets the Deer Hunter!")

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, it's chocolate Russian roulette. That looks fun!

Mmmm, Chocolate Roulette of Death.

I'm scampering around my workspace trying to finish shit up because JZ, Emmett and I are driving up to Lake Tahoe tonight - where we will be vacating through Wednesday.

No computers up there so we'll be offline.

Since this is a three-day weekend in the middle of winter and there's been a ton of new snow, the drive up to Tahoe is going to be bumper to bumper. So we're trying to leave early so we can join that hellish drive earlier.

We may get pulled over to do chains on our tires in the mountains.

Wish us not getting trapped in the Donner Pass.
