plastic

Plastics are energy-rich substances, which is why many of them burn so readily. Any organism that could unlock and use that energy would do well in the Anthropocene. Terrestrial bacteria and fungi which can manage this trick are already familiar to experts in the field. Dr Mincer and Dr Amaral-Zettler found evidence of them on their marine plastic, too.

It's all about fast cars and cussing each other / but it doesn't matter cause I'm packing plastic / and that's what makes my life so fucking fantastic.

Cady: You know I couldn't invite you. I had to pretend to be plastic.

Janis: Hey, buddy, you're not pretending anymore. You're plastic. Cold, shiny, hard plastic.

Somebody's had a plastic done on his nose, I think, or else somebody bent it out of shape since I last saw it.
