Omission, without permission

You know what's fucking weird? Calling someone "Fresh Pepper" for years before adjusting to a normal name.

I saw him for two seconds yesterday, which was unfortunately long enough for him to tell me about some legal drama including some kid who did something and should go to jail. "You only get four years in New Jersey if you're a kid and you try to kill someone. Four years!" he said. "Wow," I said, thinking of myself at 17, "that could have been so worth it."
