WHY does a certain kind of person (you know who you are!) more often than not reply to the perceived insult of a much-loved activity with the question 'Well, can you do it?', just so they can say 'Then shut up.' when you inevitably reply that you can't?!

This is stupid. The fact that something is difficult does not make it automatically worth doing. Hacking one's own head off with a plastic ruler is difficult, but that doesn't make it worth doing!

Gah. I don't know why I got so angry. Perhaps it's a by-product of the euphoric elation one receives as a result of posting twice on the same day (yeah, right). The only reason I really put up this post was because I'd had the thought of this argument earlier whilst playing Guitar Hero: Metallica (yes, they have paid me to plug for them) and subsequently thought that it was pretty good and that I should write it down before I forgot about it.

I promptly forgot about it. Several hours later whilst trawling through my earlier 'blog entries (because I was bored beyond... well, going to bed, at any rate) I remembered the argument and decided to put it up as a Personal Message on my Windows Live Messenger. However, there is a character-limit to it and I couldn't think of any suitably abbreviated form in which I could write the argument there, so instead I decided to post it on my LiveJournal 'blog.

Wow. Writing about why I wrote it took more writing than actually writing it. Ciao, folks. ^-^

P.S. If you see a banner advert for the game mentioned in the post or any paraphernalia thereto related, please let me know. It shall be final and definitive proof that the corporations are spying on me. And you, too. What, did you think that guy following you around all day was just coincidence? Sure, suuuure he's your uncle. I believe you. Now go and play in the garden. No you can't have cake. That's for me.

P. P. S. Note to self: write shorter Post-Scripts so you can remember what it is you intended to write for the Post-Post-Script. OOOH YEAH - as much as I hate asking you guys to take even a bit more of a slice outta your precious personal time (I'm sure you've got your hands full with all kindsa stuff right now - sorting out the walruses, taking in the gravity, throwing up the wall - I understand), I would very much appreciate it if you'd actually bother to COMMENT on one or two of my posts. Or three. The more you comment on, the less of a chance there is that I'll send a grue after you. You do not want a grue on your tail. Seriously. (Although personally I would be more worried about the fact that I had a tail.)
