Nons ~
As regular User of Teflon Tape in various Plumbing Escapades, I found that completely wrapping myself in it keeps various bad things at bay.
Years ago, while visiting Particle Accelerators around the World, I came up with the idea of 'BumTrons'. Not unlike 'Quarks' or 'Neutrinos', BumTroms are also little Particles. They are dense around People and/or situations that would bum me out. Especially People. So, I've made it a point to avoid BumTrons whenever I can. They everywhere!
In my protective Teflon Tape Outfit seen below, I can deflect BumTroms all Weekend, and stay Sober.
True, this Outfit is probably not a good way to meet Babes at our local Dog Park. I'm too old and too married to give a Rat's about that, though...
