  • What is your favorite version of FTL in science fiction?

  • I remember the first time I had beef wellington as a kid, not knowing what was in it and thinking oh it's just a long meat pie, then being incredibly confused why the first bit of meat I got to just kept on going

    Man I want some now, might have to make one
