Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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

I see what I think is geek sign, I reach out, and I'm left blinking. ISTG I'm not that geeky, and then I hear the stranger repeating back to me my JLA collection plan…but seriously, it isn't that radical. Plus, Green Lantern will be SPARKLY.

Art Crawl!!!

Did you confiscate the shirt?

I got back from my councellor(counseler? I can't spell this word) and drank a liter of water in about a minute. And it isn't even as hot as it was on Wednesday.

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

Did you confiscate the shirt?

Heh. If ita ran the Geek Squad, that's what they'd be doing.

In a world with more latitude (mine) I would have the shirt and my co-worker's Jayne hat held over until they demonstrated they deserved them back.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Some people want to start potty training them then. Now who's judging?!

Ooh, I judge that, too!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I see what I think is geek sign, I reach out, and I'm left blinking.

This is totally me! Then I realize that I'm not just geeky; I'm uber-geeky.

It's happened to me every time I've reached out at the office. And I swear a) I'm not uber-geeky (HONEST) and b) I'm only doing easy stuff to people who looked the type.

At my previous jobs they petted my head and brought me gifts. Maybe I'm aging out of it, because now I just get blank looks.

Uh, it's not uber-geeky to find this funny, right? Tasteless, sure, but only mildly geeky.

Because books.

Yeah, I got all of it, so it can't be too geeky. It is funny, though.
