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

Weirdo.

::waggles eyebrows::

what exactly is the occasion that one would need a giant ass sword?

Days that end in "y"? I only have a medium-assed sword. And some large knives.

Also, I need to leave work.

Fuck. Despite surviving earlier, worse, storms, the fledges in my neighbor's downspout are apparently dead.

I was tempted to move them, why the fuck didn't I? Hope? Inertia?

I'm not even a bird person, yet I raised 2 sparrows from featherless to flight, recup'd countless pidgeons...gnahrgg. Nature. Stupid birds.

Now I need to tell my neighbor about the corpses rotting in his gutter. Fuck.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I can see appreciating swords, fine. I appreciate highly impractical vintage dresses that I would never have occasion to wear.

But the video seems intent on showing how much the thing can do, who is ever going to use it for anything like that?!?1 no one. or crazy people.

it is like some parody right out of the world of office space. That is how it play in my head. "Hey, Steve. Check out this bad ass giant sword I got. Watch, it'll cut a pig head in two. Just a minute, let me pull up my sans-a-belt pants. Hey is that a new vendor give-away polo your wearing? Did you get that at the trade show?"

Liese, did you see the Canuck goalie get his head walloped? Noah kept saying, "He hit his head on the post office!"

I had a weirdly ineffectual day, but I did get a thank you package done for Donors Choose and I got the rest of my school year lesson planned.

I just sent my neighbor the weirdest email ever: hello, you have dead birds. Uhg.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

sarameg--if you had moved them the mother would have lost or rejected them, so they likely would have died anyway.
