A TRULY RANDOM RAMBLE (mercifully brief, but revised and expanded from my regular chat) follows.
If there's one nugget of wisdom I can take away from my years on the internet, it's that there's ALWAYS somebody ON the Net that's worse off than you...
and if you ARE the worst person on the Net, there's always somebody worse than you on the street, and the only reason you don't know about them is that they can't get Net access...
...and if you're the worst person on the street, there's bound to be somebody living in the sewer whose life sucks worse...
....and if you're the guy in the sewer, think about THIS: there's a guy on a desert island somewhere drinking coconut milk and sucking algae off rocks in ocean to survive...
...and if you happen to be that guy on the desert island? Well, at least you're not the algae...
(At this point, Sven chimes in: " I dunno... the algae lived a long, full life.")
(A sour look crosses Eric's face.)
DAMN YOU, SVEN!
