Hahaha, F. Scott Fitzgerald was such a DORKFACE ♥:
"F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ring Lardner are neighbors at Great, Neck, L.I. In the morning when the young author who glorified the flapper springs out of bed he sings through an open window:
'Oh the great Fitzgerlad is just out of bed. Just out of bed. Oh the great Fitzgerald!'
And soon across the space booms the voice of Lardner: 'The mighty Lardner prepareth to shave. Soap-suds and lather! Oh the beautiful sylph-like Lardner.'
Neighbors have been trying to mitigate the annoyance but to no avail. For Fitzgerald and Lardner continue their rhyming fooleries at intervals all during the day."
-Bits of New York Life, April 18th, 1923.

I just realized, as I was writing my Gatsby FLE, that I am Gatsby in a bubble. *thuds*
Kel: why r u gatsby?
me: He wanted nothing less of Daisy than that she should go to Tom and say: "i never loved you."
Kel: and...?
me: he gave Daisy everything; everything he did with his life, he did it for her
Daisy was essentially his purpose for living
Kel: so... how is this connected to u?
me: and he wanted her to be perfect
and for her to give as much of herself to him as he did to her
Kel: ...
still don't see connection
*thud*
Oh Sharon.

ADVANCE PHYSICS IS SO COOL. It makes my head spin in SUCH A PRETTY PRETTY WAY.
....
Okay, for anybody who actually read and understood that:
So the hero can come out because he's pointing his engine inward and therefore...he can get out?
cause the engine going inward would be reversed to make it going outward?

GODDAMN I WISH I UNDERSTOOD BASIC PHYSICS.
