You know how you go to your favorite bar, your local bartender isn’t there.

You ask, “Where’s Stamets?”

“Stamet’s no longer works here. I’m ummthatguy.”

And you’re thinking “Hey who’s this idiot? I like Stamets.”

But you still want your drink. And even though ummthatguy doesn’t mix your drink the same way you’re used to, like Stamets, you still like the bar. You don’t have to go to a different bar. And even ummthatguy might feel kinda bad because Stamets trained him. Stamets showed him how to work the cash register, where the tonic was on the soda gun, who tips, who doesn’t.

Stamets is the SNL Weekend Update Norm Macdonald to my Colin Quinn.

          That… or else she drank all the coffee in the universe by that point already, and the story was just a cover.:-)

          Tbf, coming face to face with yourself is likely traumatic. And she’s done it numerous times!:-P
