So I’m reading John Scalzi’s Old Man’s War, which is kind of like Ender’s Game meets Cocoon meets, I dunno, The Matrix. In a good way. Anyway, I just came across this line:

“…there was talk of naming the colony Eden, but it was suggested that such a name was karmically tantamount to asking for trouble.”

I often find my name used as metaphor in stories, but this is my favorite.
