Now tagless for your comfort.

So what does it do to kids? Cancer? Immolation? What?

Mmm. Owen's WAY over the daily recommended allowance of teevee.

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

Better watch out for the spontaneous combustion!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The tool list was very arguable. However...

New York - Forbes.com readers, editors and a panel of experts rank the scythe as the sixth most important tool of all time, in terms of its impact on human civilization. ( Read more about how we developed the rankings.)

To modern eyes, the scythe may be best known from images of the Grim Reaper and Father Time--or as a weapon used by Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

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

My dad has a scythe. Scything is fun!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

tommyrot's dad is the Grim Reaper!!! Don't let him touch you!

Gunn had a scythe. Maybe his dad is Gunn.

Or he's Buffy, which is possibly even weirder.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I have no quarrel with the scythe. Knives and swords, though, are just two points on the same edged weapon continuum.

Heh. Scything was reserved for special occasions. The swather is far more efficient. Although I can't see the Grim Reaper driving one....
