You just cleared up something that was lingering vaguely at the back of my mind for a week.

I overheard fragments of a conversation between a couple in a cafe talking about "arrfidd", but what I heard didn't make sense for Radio Frequency IDentification. This works out much better.

So what? Run her anyway. There's this thing called the window of discourse.

That's fine. Iran didn't fire missiles at Israel because of what they're doing to Palestinians, though.

Huh, a crossover episode.

What are we supposed to do with news like this? "Adults start senseless war, children suffer", paste it in gothic letters across ad ribbons and billboards. People look at those, sometimes. Say "stand up". Say "shout", at foreign tyrants who will never hear it and can't imagine what it would even mean to care.

So what you're saying is that if I get injured, I had best take a few down with me so we can all be in together and split the costs?
