Atom
a: The nucleus of an atom ~
b: a fly hovering in the middle of a football stadium
What: "The last thing that can be doubted is matter: hard solid world we live in. But is it? Is matter really what we think it is?! The answer is No. We live in - what Richard Dawkins calls - "the middle world". Matter is for the most part emptiness. There is way more emptiness in a seemingly solid matter than there is stuff. If we were small enough, we would see that the nucleus of an atom is like a fly hovering in the middle of a football stadium, the outer walls of the stadium being the electrons encircling the nucleus."

Some Dark Writing On Dark Background
a: Drunken body ~
b: rag doll
What: "Dealing with a drunken body is like playing with a rag doll that can slur together irrelevant insults. I have total control, no affixation, I just pound at the ground, his body intercepting each blow, he is nature's selfless shield. Why don't I stop, he was blacked out before he even met you. This wasn't him being an ass hole, that was the hero inside him, the worst fucking form of himself."

a: startups ~
b: Afghanistan
What:
"Not physically but mentally you get trained like a Navy Seal. Startups are like Afghanistan. Everything looks calm from outside but you never know what's going to happen next."
