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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm thinking of getting TSA PreCheck because of the hardware in my leg now. Seems like it'll make going through security easier if I have to explain every time that I'm a cyborg. Anyone have any thoughts on that idea?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That seems reasonable, Zen.

I like that we have to use our words here instead of hitting reaction buttons. Even if we simply say "like".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

One thought! I think the Pre-Check folks get to go through the regular metal detector rather than the body-scanner, so it might not actually help you at all in that respect. Depending on how the scanner deals with your leg.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have to work SO hard to not bust out #dumbass #fakehashtags here, since they're generally not part of our #culturalnorms but #ilovethem #somuch. #whatever #iwokeuplikethis #TeamCharmonique

I guess changing them to fake html tags as is our cultural norm wouldn't always work?
