Couldn't you still slip like, getting out of the bath?

Hey, if I could talk to 8-year old Hugo I'd tell him A LOT of stuff, including pointing out some rather manhole-sized gaps in his logic.

Oh yeah, I was really worried about falling down manholes.

[corriespondence]

I mean that's valid though, it happens all the time in cartoons. But how many people do you know in real life who've fallen in a sewer? It's like quicksand or lava rivers.

[hugogogadget]

I know zero personally. But what a fool I'd look like if I were the first?

[corriespondence]

I reckon you'd just look like someone in a freak accident, not a fool so much. No one really calls Wilfred Elphick or Chauncey Oldridge dumb for stuff that just happened to them.

[hugogogadget]

I'm sorry. Who and who?

[corriespondence]

On the chocolate frog cards, you know. Elphick's the bloke who got gored by an erumpent and Oldridge is the dragonpox one.

[hugogogadget]

Riiiiight. That's tough. Well, should you tragically get snorted up a giant's nose, I'll petition to get you on a chocolate frog card, too. You'll be immortal. Your memory, at least.

[corriespondence]

I 100% forgot I said that

But basically it's one thing if it happens to you and another if it happens to me, okay I'm admitting it I'm a hypocrite

[hugogogadget]

That's allowed! Just happy to have it in writing.
