Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

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

Anyone else seen Venture Brothers yet?

You know, I forget this isn't normal, but we always talk Sunday evenings, rarely at other times.

I do the same. I'd say our parents probably read the same advice except sunday calls to grandma were also the thing. It's been a tradition.

Noteworthy events get their own call, but sunday nights? It's a ritual.

Just talked to them, in fact.

Any Venture Brothers, or a particular one?

Are there any Boston-area people still awake?

and got this reply:

Actually, a raspberry lambic. Only, I made it into jello.

It's like I don't even know you.

Well, you... could mean that... though it probably wouldn't be a very subjective question then...

Aw, c'mon. People cook with booze all the time! Think about jello shooters, only mine are a tad more refined.

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

So Emily controls the balance of Buffista alcohol? What an unusual (and oddly specific) superpower! Just remember, with great power comes great responsibility.

Isn't it standard escalator etiquette to stay to the right if you are standing still so that people may keep walking on the left, especially at places like airports and subway stations? Why does no one at the red line Lake stop seem to know this?

How much humidity is too much humidity for a computer? My laptop is going to be exposed to a lot of it over the next couple of weeks. Any precautions I should take?
