My dad called me Peter Parker because I did nothing to stop a man running out of the gas station with stolen beer, now my Grandpa is going to die just like Peter's Uncle Ben. :c

Have you ever been in a store while it was being robbed?

I once saw a guy steal a whole honey ham from a grocery store. He just walked over to it, grabbed it and ran out. I have to say it was crazy, but that ham was delicious.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.

I guess I should have said armed robbery because this man had a gun.

And I once saw a man stuff a turkey in his sweater. He didn't get away with it, it's hard not to notice a man nonchalantly walking with a turkey stuffed in his shirt.

Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.

In all seriousness, I have kind of a hero complex. It's gotten me in more trouble than it's worth.

Never get involved unless someone is in immanent danger, and even then be smart about it. My nose can't take any more brokes.

A hero isn't someone who isn't afraid. A hero is someone who's scared shitless and stands up anyway.

Or some such.

He stole beer, or robbed the store? Robbery is taking something from someone by either implied or direct violence. Theft is unauthorized taking. Theft is a property crime, robbery is a violent crime.

So he robbed a store for beer? This isn't computing. He took the beer up to the counter, pointed the gun at the clerk, and said, 'don't prevent me from leaving with this'?

I've never been in a store while it was being robbed, but I had my roommate's boyfriend arrested last week because he thought it'd be totally cool if he came in our house and started to hit her. I shut that shit down real quick.

The sudden popularity of ridiculously oversized bags among girls my age around the time I was in middle school can be traced back to all the thefting going on.

Don't worry. Some handsome mysterious masked stranger WHO TOTALLY WASN'T ME! stopped him. The robber fell out a window.

I would have to say that you are Peter Parker then.

hmmmm.. hero songs. only song I can think of with any sort of hero in it.

My room mate was robbed at gun point in my kitchen once, by a guy he invited over. I wasn't home, popped out to the store for twenty minutes, came back to a house full of cops. We thought he went out to clear his head, the room mate, after everything but the next morning I was getting dressed and James came running when I screamed, I saw his foot sticking out from under our bed. He had slept under it all night. James yanked him out by his foot and slammed him on the wall, he ran out of the apartment and we never saw him again. Didn't even come back for his things.

That was a weird weekend.

I'm glad. It's good to know that I have the ability to complete lives. I mean really, that's what I want in life. To make someone feel like their life is worth living. You keep making amazing art, keep on doing what you love, and I'm sure you'll leave a beautiful mark on the world. And on our skins.

Edit: Also, I realized that the mixture of sarcasm and truthfulness may confuse one or both. I'm aware I don't actually complete lives. The rest of that is totally true.

Everybody's marker runs out. It's not about how long you can write for, but how deeply your mark is engraved in the fabric of human consciousness. Nobody reads Rousseau because he was a prolific writer, they read him because his words had gravity.

Have gravity.
