Why are you only going 50mph? Go faster! Go faster!
Two-lane country roads in PA are excellent for this, as long as you're prepared for unexpected curves.

And at some stretch of flat, straight highway in Arizona we did 160 mph.
Ooooh. What's it like to break the sound barrier? Does everything melt into colors like at the end of 2001?

Now tagless for your comfort.
For some reason, when I saw this, I thought Owen, as well as many other Buffista sprog and their parents might like it.
Owen has declared it the awesomest!

160 mph itself doesn't feel that strange, but accelerating from 80 up to 160 is...thrilling.

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.

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!"
