Michael's solution to the Trolley Problem at the end made me verklempt.
Matilda straight up burst into tears.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
The TV here (I'm waiting for my car inspection) has football on, which normally I would just tune out, but I keep hearing the name Blake Bortles and getting distracted!

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

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I don't give jacksquat about football but I had a moment where I wanted Jacksonville Jaguars to win so that it would have to be written into the show somehow.
I think that happened before with the Boston Red Sox and that Jimmy Fallon/Drew Barrymore romcom? In the original screenplay, they were supposed to lose but the upset happened and everyone was like, "what the hell, let's go with it."

Yup, Fever Pitch. They actually filmed at the game where the Red Sox won and ran onto the field.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
That happened with Lost, too. Ben Linus showed whatshisname, the Party of Five guy, footage of the Red Sox winning, and Party of Five Guy said "Now I know you're lying to me."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I didn't want to say to anyone local, but I would have been equally happy either way.

Punishingly Intricate

So, today in a class on atomic theory, I mentioned that 2400 years ago Democritus got about 95% of atomic theory correct just by thinking about it, and likened it to Doug Forcett getting most of what happens in the afterlife correct on The Good Place. A lot of students got the reference.
