You know, sometimes I think it'd be so much easier if I wasn't a city girl so I could just like go camping or something when everything goes to hell in a handbasket.

But then I remember I've watched too many horror movies and too many crime shows to ever want to be in the woods by myself without like... a tank backing me up. And tanks are probably really expensive, so I guess I'm just gonna have to get a dog bowl and write "KILLER" on it. Or a sign that says like "beware of spiders and human matchsticks". Dunno if that's more or less threatening than "beware of dog" though.

Hey, Dr. McCoy? Can I ask you a question and maybe a favor?

Not at all! It's an admirable and constructive pursuit. The idea presents a welcome contrast to those I've been encountering more recently.

I just...mean the general situation, I suppose.

Oh. Yeah, that's pretty shitty.

[professorlionface]

That's one way to phrase it, I suppose.

... I could us "crappy" if you're not cool with your students swearing in front of you.

It wouldn't change the fundamental qualities of the events.

[candidly]

Yeah, but nothing's gonna change that.

Which, if anything, only lends further accuracy to the choice of phrase.
