Personally, as a lightning and thunder expert, I think you're right to be
worried. In fact, I think one day soon that lightning is going to come into
your apartment and jump all over you. It'll tease you at first, and then,
growing tired of the game, it will incinerate you like an ounce of hamburger
in a microwave on high for an hour.

Or, maybe not. But, just to be on the safe side, why not move to some place
that never has thunderstorms!
