most of my friends have sleek muscular sports brains or reliable efficient little prius brains or even arty zippy vespa brains.

me, i am the '64 chevy malibu from repo man. best car on the lot. zero to saturn in thirty seconds.

but when it's stuck on earth pretending not to be a spaceship, it's just an ordinary gas guzzling, slow turning, drab-lookin', mildly radioactive piece of shit.

Do you even know how many /mods/ I've had to cram into this brain to get it anywhere close to functional? And that I feel I've only gotten a handle on that in the last few weeks with new focus meds (Adderall)--as opposed to the rest of my entire life. :-P

I think my brain might have originally been a Honda CRX (always wanted one), but by now it's something out of Mad Max, with huge speakers and a flaming electric guitar that work 60% of the time. :-P

Well, it's *alarmingly* accurate. XD
