It often annoys me that my shoes - no matter how new, old, clean, or dirty the soles are - have a tendency to squeak when I walk on hard surfaces. Like store tile floors. I do not at all object to the squeaking being a completely passive-aggressive means of imparting "stop standing in the middle of the aisle and get the heck out of the way".Cheap, fast, good. Pick two.

Man, I have a strong tendency to assume everything is about me, that someone is annoyed at me and something they said within earshot is a dig. In all reality, I missed the one word or phrase that could change the meaning entirely. It's especially stupid because said person hasn't acted at all like they're angry with me for months and months. I think this is what's called a "trauma response" and I've been suddenly seeing a whole lot of my emotional, internal thought processes resemble that. It's daunting."Is it hot in here to you? It's very warm, isn't it?"--Nero, probably

I got algorithm'ed back to the original teaser for Star Trek 2009 the other night. The 45-second one where it's just Industrial Stuff Happening, Generic Dramatic Music, Kennedy's moonshot speech...and then the camera pans up and holy crud it's the saucer section, Nimoy's single line of the intro, and a faint hint of the theme song chimes. Boy did that hit different in 2008/2009. Aaand then the Abramsverse movies turned out...like they did.Cheap, fast, good. Pick two.
