The subtle smell of lavender wafted through the room, and Penny, strapped to a wooden chair by means or rope, stared at her "brother" in disdainful curiosity. "You wear...perfume? He scowled and held up a letter. "Scented." "You're a terrible brother you know, you knocked me out and strapped me to a chair." "Well, in fairness you tried to shoot me." "In case it has escaped your notice, the world isn't fair. However, you're pretty oblivious so it probably has." "Tell me again, who's in the chair and who's not?" "Why, have you forgotten?" "I could kill you." "Perhaps, but you're a lunatic; lunatics never act as expected." "I'm not a lunatic." "I don't have a brother." "Then who am I?" "A lunatic." He put his face in his hands.

When you swim in a swimming pool (OMG, a swimming pool is called a swimming pool because you swim in it, utterly genius.  However, that is not the geniusness of this post), if you do, what happens to your eyes? When you swim in a lake, if you do, what happens to your eyes? IF YOU ACTUALLY SWIM IN A BODY OF WATER, OR RUNNING WATER, OR ANY KIND OF WATER, WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR EYES!?!?!?!??!?! Do they die? Are they red? Do they hurt? Do you not swim? Your eyes will probably hurt. Unless you are immune.  Which is cool.  I am yet to meet someone who is immune to the effect water has on your eyes. The Genius Invention: GOGGLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
