So okay, those numbers are just a guess, but I am thinking that's about right in our BATTLE TO THE DEATH.
Thwarty Universe's latest action against me was just a few hours ago:
My sister and I were making our way to our parents' house to spend some quality family time together for a bit. We were taking good old public transportation, as neither one of us drives. Rather than support us in our support for a greener, healthier Earth, Thwarty Universe chose to STOP THE MAX ON THE TRACKS AND LOSE POWER.
That'd be no big deal, only apparently the MAX got tangled up in the wires and apparently anyone that tried to leave the train would be fucking ELECTROCUTED. LET ME TELL YOU, TWO HOURS LATER, ELECTROCUTION WAS LOOKING PRETTY SWEET.
Anyway. Eventually they figured out how to ground us. I was thinking "can't they just put a log against the MAX that touches the ground?" See, it'd be awesome if they did that in a movie, but then as a small child or fresh-faced youthful lady was in the process of stepping off, the log would tremble precariously. THEN COMES THE SLO-MO where you see the firefighters and cops and Keanu Reeves screaming "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" silently as the log tumbles to the ground and the youth/lady/child is electrocuted OR jumps to safety right in time OR Keanu tackles him/her and saves him/her OR a cop throws him/herself on the train to distract the electricity (yes, I know it probably doesn't work like that) and save the youth/lady/child.
ANYWAY. So. We sat there for a really, really, really long time. And now I am home. The end.
Universe: You're On Notice.
THANKS.
