    Oh, don’t be so dramatic. We’re nowhere near that yet. We’re just rapidly spiraling toward it like a disoriented skydiver tangled in the lines of their reserve chute.

      Don’t forget that we are actually skydiving in tandem with someone who either doesn’t believe in gravity, is trying to hit the ground on purpose, or both.

        I like to think it wasn’t even tandem, they entered the picture Point Break style.
