Like when your car won't go because the steering wheel is turned the wrong way or cars have you pinned somewhere and then someone just keeps ramming into you over and over?
TO INFINITY.
Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

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

I'm with Gudanov, spinny rides make me nauseous. I even turn green on relatively speedy ferris wheels. Roller coasters are loads of fun though!

Yes, Reza is very common in Farsi. On top of that, I was born on the eve of Imam Reza (a descendant of Mohammad), so even if my parents had a different boy name chosen, it wouldn't have mattered.
As a side note, when I was 7 or 8 and visiting Iran, I got to go to the Mosque of Imam Reza. It is supposed to be good luck for a boy to touch the shrine but sacrilege for a girl. My family had dressed me as a boy, so I wouldn't have to worry about a chador . Other worshipers saw me and body surfed me to the front so I could have the honor of touching the shrine.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Here’s The Official Catalogue Of Sins, From The Family Research Council
These are some sins politicians commit:
Usurpation of parents’ authority by indoctrinating children into sexual promiscuity, pantheism (worship of the environment), polytheism (multiculturalism), atheistic humanism, liberal politics, socialism & statism under the guise of public “education” while failing to teach fundamental academics or simple truths of right & wrong
Thievery of family wealth via confiscatory estate and inheritance taxes
Thievery from future generations through wicked borrowing, deficit spending & amassing unconscionable public debt

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Gave me driving anxiety that lasted until learner's lessons.
I'm pretty sure it was Lori in the car with me, not on bumper cars, just on the driving-on-a-track thing -- the car is on a track, all it can do it go where it's supposed to! -- where I was totally stressed out.
Which reminds me, I think I'm going to need to learn to drive again for this job. At least, I said something about not having a car, and she was like, Well, you can just rent one if you need to get somewhere, right? Um, sure?

Any ride that makes me feel like I'm tipping or falling = Not Fun. So no Ferris wheels, and no roller coasters. NoiseDesign got me to go on Space Mountain, and while it wasn't as ohmygodI'mgoingtoDIE terrifying as I thought, I'm in no hurry to ever go back on it. And obviously, the Tower of Terror is RIGHT OUT.
But I love the teacups. LOVE.

Dude. That is the best story ever. I love this story and want to have its babies.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
pantheism (worship of the environment)
ahem
When did this definition take hold? I am irritated. I do not worship the environment. I strongly advocate taking good care of the environment of humankind, being as I'd like to continue living in it, but I don't worship it. When did "pantheist" come to mean "New-Age tree-hugging Earth-is-our-Mother hippie"? Not that I've never hugged a tree, but that's beside the point. Hippie is a fine thing to be, if it's your thing, but it isn't my thing, and it isn't pantheist. Universe is not Earth. Nature is not the environment. When I say "everything is God" I damn well mean "Everything".
I could go on, but I'll spare you.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
When I was three years old, my Dad took me and my two sisters on the teacups at Disneyland. Dad, for some reason, thought it was fun to spin the teacups as fast as he possibly could. Me, being three, was not hip to the concept of centrifugal force, and I didn't understand why I kept getting pushed back against the teacup. I would lean forward, and my head would bounce against the teacup, hard. I started crying, and screaming, but my dad didn't stop spinning the teacup. He just kept spinning the teacup, as hard as he could, with a big grin on his face, laughing. He didn't seem to care how disturbed I was, and how much it hurt, having my head getting hit against the teacup, over and over again. I wanted him to stop, but he wouldn't; not until the end of the ride.
At the time, I didn't realize that day would be a portent for how the rest of my childhood would turn out.
