In that the Lightning looks like a truck while the CT looks like something that the Colonial Marines would pile out of for another bug-hunt before getting their asses kicked and then it’s game over, man, game over.

Yeah, I see that I just plain misread that sentence!  (My eyes thought it went “...so it just feels weird that he’s plowing his aunt.”)  100% never mind!
