Vignette for the Post 9/11 Era

In which coworker Weez queries FAB about a recent Facebook status update regarding the return of the M4s this morning. Hooray for the internet!
Setting: Gmail chat thingy


::Curtain::

Weez:
What are M4s?
Weez: And where were those? In the subway?
FAB: Outside.
Weez: Outside of our office???
FAB: No No. [FAB's local subway station]
Weez: Oh.
FAB: I saw them there a few weeks ago. Outside.
Weez: Frightening.
FAB: But one of the dudes carrying one of the machine guns walked really close to me while i was smoking outside the subway entrance. Like within inches of me. And gave me elevator eyes.
Which I thought was profoundly unfair given that one party happened to be holding a machine gun at the time.
Weez: Did you flick your cig in his face? Ha!
FAB: Um no.
Weez: You had a lit object.
FAB: Did I mention how he was cradling a machine gun in his arms?
Weez: Yes.
FAB: Machine gun > Cigarette butt. As weaponry goes...
Weez: You're tough.
FAB: Not that tough.
