This. No matter how many times you hop, you're just never gonna get used to it.

Interesting. In my timeline we call them bounces

I ran into a fella in Seattle a while ago, maybe 8 years from now? 12? He was thru on a "fix," We must've talked for the better part of an hour thinking he was with one of those, y'know, activist tanks (you know the ones) before I caught on they just called hops (or bounces) "fixes."

Interesting character. Saw some shit but had this way of telling you about it that was just... Comedic poetry. I could tell he'd been out too long tho. Hope he finished whatever he on.

Anyway.... Yeah.
