How much did the chicken cost? How long did you spend cooking it? What about the starving children down the road who could have actually made rather better use of the chicken than Mr. Corpse? What about the fact that Mr. Corpse is in his current predicament because he was suffering from Ebola, which your totally superfluous soup ministrations have now caused you to acquire?

So yes, doing anything because you've got nothing better to do but you don't actually know what you are doing, is indeed a bad thing. Received on Sun May 09 2004 - 18:39:56 CDT
