If a person calls shotgun, they automatically get that place in the vehicle. There are only a few exceptions to this rule (also called the Shotty Rule depending on where you're from), such as
~The boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse of the driver automatically has this spot unless they decline
~The driver of the vehicle has overall say if more than one person calls shotgun at once.
Under no circumstances are you allowed to break this rule.

Pawl-Shotgun!
(Gary gets in shotgun)
(long drawn out silence. Driver doesn't start vehicle)
Pawl-Gary, what the hell. Didn't you just hear me call shotgun?
Gary-I can't fit in the backseat! my legs are too long.
Pawl-you liar!
Driver-you just broke the shotgun rule. only the worst scum of the bottom of society's shoe would even think of doing that. Get out of my car, you're walking home.

Jul 15 Word of the Day
The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).
Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”
There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.

Billionaires are having a dick swinging space race while the earth experiences record breaking heatwaves that cause sea creatures to literally cook inside their shells. We need planetary quarantine.
