Phil thought it was What the face or Why the face or something like that.
Kaylee: Is that him? Mal: That's the buffet table. Kaylee: Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've had large chunks of snow and ice hit me in the windshield when I wasn't driving particularly close enough times that I don't do it to anyone else.
Well, okay, I don't do winter, but you know what I mean. I also cleared snow off my hood and boot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
One upside to home sick? I finally got to have the grilled cheese and tomato soup I wanted for lunch yesterday. Downside? I had to make it myself.

Because books.
Leaving snow on the roof is also not a great thing if you have to stop short, and it all slides down the windshield. Because then you can't see.
People who don't thoroughly clean off their cars enrage me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Lots of rage for the lack of snow removal.
I guess it's sort of a litmus test for an individual's sense of community responsibility. What you don't do affects your neighbors. Ditto with clearing off the sidewalk.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I am going to die of boredom at work today.

My car is too small and short to worry about the snow hawk.

I also cleared snow off my hood and boot.
And for a moment I pictured ita brushing snow off her head and feet.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
So I haven't been here for a while -- how's this onerous task thing work? Do you provide quiet moral support - like, "this is better because I know somewhere my buffistas are rooting for me" - or post-facto encouragement - "If I can just get this done, I get many virtual slaps on the back"? Or does ita just tell me to quit whining and do it already? What's the deal? Because I think I need to shovel my drive and I'm still not dressed yet.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I definitely didn't clear the snow off our van, but it pretty much hit the ground before we made it out of our dirt roads. I suppose it's possible that someone could be driving behind us on those roads, but it hasn't actually happened yet in the nearly three years we've been living here.
I do better with the station wagon since it's lower. Longer, but lower.
