Letting Off Steam

Poor Nate. I can always tell exactly what sort of day he has had by the way he walks across the playground toward me. I think, to some extent, this is done for my benefit. Today, it was all about stomping; folded arms; thundercloud brow.

"Hey, Pickle! How was your day?"
"Horrible. Is was a horrible goddamn day!!"
"Nate! Watch your mouth!"
"Well, it was! Why does everybody have to yell at me all the time!?"
"Did you get yelled at today?"
"OK, it wasn't yelling, it was teasing! When a person has gas that has to some out, what can he do about it!?"

Turns out that he got in some sort of altercation with another little boy and decided to give him a telling off. Right in the middle of it, with all eyes upon him and respectful silence 'round about, Nate let go a huge one. This could take a while to live down.
