I have always believed that civilization as we know it is in danger of imminent collapse. I used to be more of a survivalist, but now I mainly have minor flashlight and knife obsessions.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
accelerating from 80 up to 160 is...thrilling.
Colors DO melt! I knew it!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It can't hurt to have some on hand, right?

Dear Karate Dude
Yes, it is a good idea to wear a cup to class. It should be a normal part of your dressing for karate. As much as I'm thankful you apparently have yours on under your gi (unlike another adult at the dojo), I don't need you to knock on it to prove that you are protected. You are my age, not some kid. And, for the record, I was hitting you in the thigh, not the groin.
No love,
Me

Isn't he trying to communicate: "Hey! Go for it!"
And I'm not sure why that's bad.
Did it feel like he was communicating: "Hey! I've got genitals!"

Dear Everyone,
Do not drive 160 on my road! I live there!
My new speedometer goes much higher than my old one, making each angle of the pie many fewer miles, which means my peripheral glance at the speedometer leads me to believe that I am going slower than I am, therefore I speed. And also the ride is better so I can't tell I'm doing it. Oops.
I think I told you guys this, but the SO & I were talking about the supervolcano late one night, happily idly disaster speculating. We said, oh, we shouldn't talk about this so late, we'll have nightmares. And I did. About forgetting to change a hotel reservation for my road trip. THE HORROR! Yeah, that was the best my mundane psyche could get itself worked up about.

Ha! Saguaro cactus only exist in Roadrunner cartoons. I'm not falling for that.
