Installed a solar node on it for our emergency/disaster-response hub next door.

Cuz I immediately had that soundtrack playing in my head "mister, I'll make a mannnn, out of youuuuuuu"

I can't even look at a lamppost in the same way anymore.

Driving around, looking up at things that stick up above the treeline.

This is normal, right?
