Did you choose to accept the assignment?

The way all things in my life electrical are going, I suspect I shouldn't.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sara! Maybe the fires are trying to follow you back home. Please take care.
Speaking of fires something caught ablaze down the block from me yesterday. Again. I'm nowhere near the brush-fire ravaged areas, much too built up here. But that's the third place within a two block radius that I know about since I've moved here.
And I still haven't insured my apartment.

Nilly (waves), I'd take that more of a cultural thing - it's not something you've been taught from childhood, so not seeing it is understandable.
Doesn't explain me.

Swouncing
I suspect I shouldn't
Well, maybe the assignment would be to sabotage some foreign evil electric equipment? At least you will be able to use Murphy's law for the forces of good?

Thankfully, no fire was involved. Just pieces of plastic shot at my head. Actually, I think I'll blame baggage handlers at BWI.
As much as I'd love to travel to use my powers of evil for good, I'm a little afraid of what would be waiting to destruct upon my return.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Just pieces of plastic shot at my head.
So it malfunctioned, and reverted to its default mode of "kill all humans"?

The status is NOT quo.
Hasn't HIMYM always had a laugh track? I remember it turned a lot of people off the show when it first premiered.Really?
Okay, I am officially oblivious. I hate laugh tracks, yet I didn't notice it until last night. Maybe they took a break from laugh tracks for awhile and just started up again? Or maybe I'm just an idiot.

I never really notice laugh tracks.
