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

People who need to explain themselves:

  • Ones who come to a stop >1 car length behind the car in front of them at the light, whether or not they spend the duration of the red inching forwards.
  • People with a lot of baggage that squeeze you out of the back corner of the up elevator even though they're getting out at 3 and no one's pressed 2.
  • Groups of people who line themselves across the door and then press 11 when 6 is the next highest floor pressed. And seem surprised when the elevator stops.

People that amuse me:

  • The woman taking the elevator's Jimmy Kimmel/Sarah Silverman breakup news very seriously--up to and including being very startled by the closing sentence: "It is not known if Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are involved."
  • The English co-worker who has now taken to expressing displeasure using the word bother.
  • The co-worker who told me to get the English co-worker's attention with a reacharound. Bother indeed.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Burritos.

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

CTA Red Line trains are stopped in both directions between the Wilson and Thorndale Avenues after a person was apparently struck by a northbound train at about 4:50 p.m.Tuesday, a CTA spokeswoman said.

So that' why my commute was so slow. (I was on the first southbound train they let past Argyle.) There were about 25-30 cops and CTA employees standing around on the platform....

I'm pretty sure that I was taught this was safe driving practice, in case you get rear-ended. But it's been a while, I can't really remember.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That may help if you get accidentally rear-ended, but I'm guessing your chances of getting rear-ended in the first place just jumped exponentially.

If anyone does that in front of me in Los Angeles traffic, I get so far up on their ass as to force them to move forward. it is simply unacceptable.
