I definitely chose the wrong profession. Or maybe I didn’t. Maybe I can just start wearing space helmets to my Internet job. I think that might go over well, actually. They’re wearing helmets on the runway in London.
The only problem would be wearing it when I’m not actually writing. If you’re wearing a helmet and not actually doing something that could potentially involve head trauma, you look dumb. And: You’re quietly begging some asshole to whack you over the dome with a tire iron.
These F1 dudes wear the helmets and goggles through the entire race, which is silly. Watch, during the race when the camera cuts away to the garage, the entire crew is just sitting there looking ridiculous. At least put some blinking lights on them or something.
Anyway, my point is: Helmets are fucking cool if you're not just sitting there.
