Even if I'm walking, I'd rather put a hood up than carry an umbrella. Umbrellas leave you with one less hand!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I've never had a raincoat hood that would stay up. Who wants to Google rain hats for me?

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

My raincoat has an elastic drawstring thingie in the hood so it stays up.

I just saw your tag, Jessica. "Or three times in every life. Or twice. I mean once." I made Stephen watch with me this morning, and he was doubled over by that point.

I consider myself INCREDIBLY lucky that my kids have never cut their own or each others' hair. Yet.

Don't get too comfortable. Sara cut some of her own hair not two years ago.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's really no way to hide the smallest chunk of attempted hair-cutting with kinky black folk hair. Man, I fucked my sister's do up something awful.
Rite of passage, that's what I'm filing it under...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Franny used to cut her own hair on a regular basis. We've finally convinced her that she can just ask the stylist and she can do it for her.
Thanks everybody.
