Morbane's coal

[coalcube]

In quantum wankchanics, Morbane's coal is a thought experiment, sometimes described as a paradox, of quantum wankerposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical gift may be considered simultaneously both the fic of your dreams (TFOYD) and coal, while it is unread state, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.

The Coaltide interpretation implies that, after a while, the gift is simultaneously TFOYD and coal. Yet, when a coalie clicks on their gift, the coalie sees the gift either TFOYD or coal, not both TFOYD and coal. This poses the question of when exactly quantum wankerposition ends and reality resolves into one possibility or the other.

i wonder if this person used to do feral wolf RP, because you'd see people use trunk in that to mean body/torso.

This actually makes way more sense than anything I envisaged.

no, it seems like Rust is waking up after sleeping in the boot of his car?

To be fair, if Rust was a vampire he probably would sleep in the trunk of his car.

The image of Rust sleeping under a tarp(?) in the bed of his pickup is sending me, thanks.

I'm reading this as Rust sleeping in the Crash trunk (they mention "grenades", which is a long-standing question I have about canon...why does he have those). Which is just a hilarious image, given that it's like 3 feet long.
