Glory Girl - Can Swing Cars

“Sorry to hear that,” she said. “She seems nice enough, from what I hear, except for the tearing stuff up thing.”

“Well, yeah. If somebody is tough enough that you can swing a car at them, then they're probably tough enough to ignore the car. If they aren't that tough, then you shouldn't be swinging a car at somebody. Either way, that's somebody's car! It's a big deal when you destroy a car...a lot of people don't have insurance that'll replace it.”

Either I'd be ready to wet my pants every time I was around her, or I'd turn that fear into anger. The more that happened, the more likely I was to turn against her, to tear her down mentally and work to ruin her life. That probably wasn't the smart thing to do to a girl who could lift fourteen tons over her head and had a problem with being impulsive, no matter how nice people said she was.
