hahahah I did it

I did the thing

That I’d been wanting to make sure I did at least once, while I was in Minneapolis


The subtle and stealthily Tron-related thing

i.e.

  1. drawing this design on a t-shirt
me wearing a white T-shirt on which I have used markers to draw the logo of the Twin Cities Metro Transit System. This is the letter T in a circle.  The background is a marker-drawn public transit map of the city. It slightly resembles the circuit patterns on Tron's costume. Around the T is written "MetroTransit.org" except that the A in Transit has been replaced with a heart, allowing it to be read as an O if you're looking for that.ALT
The back of the shirt, on which I have drawn a rider on a bicycle with speed lines behind it, and the words MY OTHER RIDE IS A CYCLEALT


2. getting on the Metro Transit bus

me standing at the bus stop, showing off the resemblance between the T on my shirt and the T on the Metro Transit logo on the bus stop signALT


3. going to Flynn’s

me standing in front of a diner with the name FLYNN'S on a big signALT

I can testify that Flynns in Richfield MN has

  1. no arcade
  2. hollywood-themed decor with conspicuous absence of any reference to THAT movie franchise
  3. solidly meh food

foam container of food from Flynn's, including some slices of French toast and a little plastic cup of macaroni and cheese; also a plastic cup of blue slushyALT

and also absolutely no one noticed what I was doing

but I STILL HAVE NO REGRETS
