you are the big rocket launcher

You know, you couldn't have picked three more American foods. (To me, anyway. I dislike deli pickles, don't like doughnuts much, and don't really care for root beer. These three things always seem to be offensively in the background somewhere. Probably I notice them because I reject them immediately, all other food is just ambiently pleasant.)

The rest was also great to read, of course ... a bit like speeding downhill on skis, or better yet, being on a train. That's more forceful.
