[Megan and Ponytail are standing together. Megan is talking to Ponytail.]
Megan: Wait, all the papers in your field are posted as free PDFs on arXiv? That must be killing big science journals, since they charge such huge subscription/publication fees.
[Ponytail responds with her arms wide, palms up.]
Ponytail: Nah, we’ve been doing it since the 90s and nobody seems to care.
[Megan contemplates, speechless.]
[Megan slightly raises her arms and Ponytail puts up a hand to shush her.]
Megan: That makes no sense at all!!
Ponytail: Shhh, you’ll jinx it!
