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

Seriously. I never look at the screen for that consistently long without a Winchester on it. Bully for him.

And, considering the cultural gulf, fairly entertaining. We're all the same! Except completely different!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I was totally entertained. Because, yeah, all the same but so very different. The way he'd just merge from one language to another was lovely too.

Except I really did keep thinking I understood Arabic and clicked away to check a progress bar on another screen. All of the sudden I have delusions that I am Antonio Banderas in 13th Warrior and instantly am fluent in other languages.

Anyone have suggestions on what I can do about the car alarm going off for two days, next door? It's on private property, so the police say all they can do is ticket it. I left a voicemail for the apartment management company, but I'm sure they won't get it until Monday. Don't know why the building residents aren't up in arms, but omg I am going insane.

Ugh. I mean, get it ticketed but can they ensure that it's actually a resident's car?

No idea. It's parked in a resident spot. (If it were on the street I might be able to get it towed!)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

This may be completely untrue, but I heard the alarm goes off once the car is tilted to a certain angle -- such as would happen when being towed.

Cassiepants, can she shut this thing up with some black clothing and a jack under the front bumper?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Nova is in my lap, as usual, tenderizing my bathrobe.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Two days? By that point I'd be considering solutions like building a fire on a skateboard and rolling it under the car's engine.
