I stayed up all night working on my _(component of a car)_ and I’m so _(emotion)_ to show my formula lead and best pal, _(name of Oliner)_, what I spent _(number)_ hours on, for it was my time to present on my design review! When I was done presenting, I showed them a simulation of my _(body part)_ exploding. _(Oliner from before)_ was so proud of how I did that they jumped in the air with joy. “_(exclamation)_!” They proclaimed. “This _(noun)_ just might be what we need for the _(part of a car)_, and it might even solve world hunger!” Clearly this had to become a business model, so I ran to the LPB to figure out how to _(verb)_ its manufacturing process. I started by looking forlornly at the tools. I began touching the things. They were _(material)_. Probably. Except for the parts that weren’t. _(name of different Oliner)_ told me to attach the beams together. I did not know how to that _(adverb)_. Duck tape or _(plural noun)_ seems good. I think wheels are for the weak. We don’t need them. I’ll just throw them into the bottomless pit we built two _(plural unit of time)_ ago. I’ll throw my sorrows in there too for good measure. In exchange I have unlimited access to a plethora of _(plural noun)_. That aside, I _(past tense verb)_ the beams together. I accidentally lit some _(plural noun)_ on fire in the process though. But as _(Oliner from before)_ always says, “you can’t _(verb)_ on the _(noun)_ or else the _(noun)_ will get you down.” And I’ll bet my _(body part)_ they’re right! And this is why I don’t need a life outside of formula, because as you can see, I have all the _(plural noun)_ I could ever need.
