Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

Coding and Sleeping

My HS doesn't even have a Wikipedia entry. I can't think of anyone famous from there.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I will not engage the crazy Christian. I will not engage the crazy Christian.

**Note: Not all Christians are crazy, however this one, particular person is and I shall not engage her.

But morals and ethics are NOT THE SAME.

Right?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

They are similar, but not the same.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Both of my high schools have wikipedia pages but neither have notable alumni. Which is odd, since one of them was in Springfield VA and i can't imagine that there are zero noteworthy alums. That school was chock full o government spawn.

Morals and ethics are very different. What you believe is right vs what society says is right. You can have either one without the other.

Fantastic: one of my University alums (Douglas Southall Freeman) was the namesake of my first High Schools. Ah Richmond, keeping it local.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think of it as a personal code vs. a set of rules for behavior in a system.

A journalist can have morals that have nothing to do with journalistic ethics.

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

Fay Weldon went to my high school. I did not know that. Alumna were something that never came up. I didn't find out about Angela Lansbury until after I left, and the only reason I knew about HBC and Sarah Patterson was because they were acting while I was there.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

All the semi-famous people who went to my college were there when I was, I think. Michael Park from As The World Turns and Pandora Boxx from Drag Race are probably the most famous. A nun who I knew also has a wikipedia entry, but I don't think she is actually famous. And I don't know if Manuel Rivera-Ortiz is actually a famous photographer, but I knew him (and his husband). His wiki article makes it look like he is famous! [link]

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

Also, he forgot to put on part of his Bat-costume.
