Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Cool, JZ.(do you think you could introduce us, or am I just getting dork all over everything right now? Not that I'm expecting to Take A Meeting, but I'd feel weird saying "Hi, Professor, I believe you know one of my friends in the box." Even if I didn't say "That's what she said." (Flips bird to Fast Eddie Lazar-Gus) I mourned you, you crazy motherfucker. I mean, not at any tormenting length...we were just invisible friends, but still. You are a special kind of asshole,sir. Depart the internet forthwith. You cannot be trusted with your connection. Relinquish it to someone worthwhile. (turning to all the cameras)

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

13 years difference, I opine (entirely ex cloaca)

I've heard half your age + 7. I'm not entirely sold on the usefulness of this formula, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jeez, Cash -- like your family need any external trouble!

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

Cash, I hope your Dad and his car are okay.

I am definitely more of a gatherer than a hunter.

I beg to differ. At least you lay traps.

I'm actually laughing out loud now. Because I started thinking about it, and I am totally hunting! But not in an aggressive way... IN MY HEAD.

Because books.

I've heard half your age + 7.

So anyone over ... 28 is okay for me? Until April, I guess.

Not that I'm looking, of course.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yikes, Cash! Glad he's okay, finger's crossed that the insurance works out.

Our wings are not tired.

Cash! So glad he's not more hurt. YIKES.

Mmmhmm.

I can't even gather properly. Can't even make eye contact with possibly neutral parties in bars.

“Not dead yet!”

Argh, Cash. Here's hoping your dad's okay.

So what's the formula for determining at some point if you + person = cougar hunting?

It's proportional. When I was twenty-one and dating a nineteen year old, I was a cradle robber. Now that I'm 42 and he's 40, the age differential is non-existant. When I was in my early thirties, thinking someone who was nineteen was hot freaked me right the hell out. Same person is now 29 and I'm not so freaked out by thinking he's cute anymore.

It's a sliding scale sort of thing.
