Man, wish I'd had a stun gun today. There was some guy on the MAX that kept looking at me. He was all thin, and frail, with wide glasses and an oh-so-chic foppish haircut, a tight-fitting sweater and black slacks. People dressed like that just freak me out.But he kept looking at me. And when I'd look up --- because you can always tell when someone's looking at you and you just have to look --- he'd take like 3 steps forward, stop, put his head down, and look at me out of the corner of his eye.
Thankfully he started off about 30 feet away from me on the MAX so he never got very close (I was only going like 3 stops down to get to Stream) but by like the thrid or fourth iteration of that I never took my eyes off of him. It's fun playing the staring game, especially when you can have an entire conversation with your eyes.
"Will you, uh, be my friend? Talk to me, perhaps, even....oh, dare I say it? Love me?"
"Fuck off, arseface."
...and then, I got off the MAX.

You take a 98-percent concentration of fuming nitric acid and add the acid to three times that amount of sulfuric acid. Do this in an ice bath. Then add glycerin drop-by-drop with an eye dropper. You have nitroglycerin.
