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

(If your username contains "smeagol" you really shouldn't be surprised to learn Aragorn was in his 80s during LotR)

Apparently 83 city (N-S into the city) is a parking lot they are trying to clear. Crazy. Rush hour storms are evil, I guess.

He's Dunedain, originally descended from elf-hybrid.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

He's Dunedain, originally descended from elf-hybrid.

You can tell he's a hybrid, he's environmentally friendly and gets great mileage.

My boss referenced Galaga in the all team meeting today. I felt very...I never played Galaga. His metaphor failed me. But at least I know he's about my age. I would have used Centipede to describe the onslaught of operational support problems that you have to overcome, myself.

Or, hell, Space Invaders. Who doesn't love Space Invaders? But Centipede was more fun with the spinny ball thing.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I can vaguely imagine washing one's car once a week if you are a)somewhat OCD about your car or b) live in a very salty environment.

Me? I haven't washed my car in a couple years...not since the last big snow storm. i noticed moss growing on my car yesterday, so perhaps i should spring for a drive through tomorrow.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

You can tell he's a hybrid, he's environmentally friendly and gets great mileage.

Oh dang, billytea, you just made me snort!

I agree that washing the car once a week is crazy talk, but I definitely need to start washing my car A LOT more often.

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

I should wash my car when it starts getting my clothes dirty. But I don't.
