    Yeah, exactly! This is my point! Shit gets real up there!

    Not “up” as in “north.” “Up” as in away from the earth… z-axis… CLOSER TO SPACE THAN NORMALLY SURVIVABLE

      As a kid, my family visited some other family in Colorado Springs, and one night when we didn’t have anything to do, they took us to a gymnastics gym that had free play hours.

      I ran around for a few minutes before I started to get really winded. The staff picked up on it, and was like, "where are you from?” When I said Arkansas, they were all like “Oh, yeah, there isn’t enough air up here for you. Go sit down for a bit.”

      There ISN’T ENOUGH AIR UP THERE. SHIT IS HARDCORE.
