    My dad used to have a white Toyota Celica with a red hood and a Megatron battery. It had performance issues. Guess what I called it?

    Whenever I see workmen using ladders I think of rung

    The other day I saw some police cars driving really fast through the northfield high street diversion while swerving and couldn't help but think of the talkative little scamp swerve

    Whenever or listen to the band primal scream I think of both optimus primal and starscream

    What tfw2005? No incredibly rude and deeply inappropriate mention of Hot Rod, Erector or Slag yet?

    I could say the last one about a certain neighbor of mine.....

    Anyway I spy the name cosmos quite often when I go a shopping area which has a restaurant with the same name.

    We got these napkin and paper towels with a big "BOULDER" logo on them.
    So I can't look at my kitchen shelves without automatically picturing that big green smilin' face!!

    Most of us have experienced a Blackout from time to time.... happens around here every time we have tornado warnings and/or severe thunder storms.

    Speaking of Tornadoes....

    the phrase brainstorm to describe that non-linear note taking technique seems to be used less nowadays, someone once told me it is considered insensitive to those with mental health problems and mood board is considered more politically correct. Whenever I do them my first instinct is to call them brainstorms as that was more commonly used when I was first introduced to them and I invariably think of the transformer brainstorm every time I do.

    When I was out to sea on a Destroyer, we encountered Seaspray.

    I've been in a Brawl

    A Tornado is also a Vortex.

    California has Earthquakes.

    I used to pop a Wheelie on my bike

    Our ship had a Sonar, and at one point, actually had some Depthcharges onboard.

    My car has Camshafts and Axles.

    Careful...don't step on those Landmines.

    Koffing used Smokescreen....it's super effective.

    The prison is on Lockdown.

    I once played the sport curling.

    I think someone thought they saw 1 of Scourge's clone huntsmen fly around, because they kept yelling, "Sweep! Sweep!"

    I've seen several Transformer names just referring to the local traffic, roads, and local dumb@$$es who somehow got their drivers license in the news paper and notices. :p 

    *Sideswipe
    *Dead End
    *Fix It
    *Road Rage
    *Smokescreen
    *Streak
    *Barricade
    *R.E.V.
    *Skids
    *Road Block
    *Breakdown
    *Road Hugger
    *Mudflap
    *Run-Over
    *Over-Run

    and I use Hot Shot when someone cuts me off because I can't exactly say "you stupid s***head" or "son of a ****" when my neice or grandmother are in the vehicle. :p
