...I think I've spotted the causes of your problem.

1.  Love beads should not have a pull-start handle on the end.

2.  The chemical formula for patchouli is NOT H2SO4.

3.  They can't keep up with the car, no matter how much they love you.  Therefore, you should not chain them to the back bumper by the neck.

4.  If you don't believe they love you enough, cut them loose.  Handing them a secret service handbook and demanding they prove themselves only leads to tragedy.

If you have any further questions, I'll let the lab geeks know.

But Reverend! They LIKE the pull-start motor; I can tell from the noises they make! And patchouli, whatever... my formula makes them smell so much better.

Even hippies need exercise, and... doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?  :cry:

That's right... the passenger pigeon was a total hippie which is why they didn't have driver's licenses... just bummed rides off of other birds.

Roger ponders his next move, balancing the prospect of getting a date with the Dark Empress versus that of being started like a lawnmower on the wrong end...IS there a downside, here?

Yep.  Go for it.

Nigel, how are they supposed to learn their lessons if they can't find all of their brains afterwards?  They STILL haven't found all of the parts of that one.  The map you left (out of the kindness of your heart) was useless after the blood dried and flaked off the skin parchment.  Half of the brains did turn up in that pet store, floating in the empty tank between the African cichlids and the piranhas, but the rest?  (Writing "Think Tank" on the front of the tank?  That poor pet store clerk twitches every time she walks past the fish room, now, and they can't actually get her IN there to fetch so much as a guppy any more.)

Really, you should think about the collateral damage...

I mean, the place where you left his junk hanging was creative, I mean really spectacular, it made a STATEMENT, but that whole high school football team is gonna be in therapy for the next six years.  (Other than the quarterback, obviously, but the doctors say that he'll PROBABLY recover some cognitive function after a the electroshock therapy finally hits the memory and burns it out.)
