World is full of feet-draggers and stool-sifters.

I have a modus vivendi.  Some stuff requires rational thought and near-as-dammit reasonable solutions. Other stuff is all about immeasurable, abstract nouns - sympathy, kindness, appreciation.  In between, there is a very civilised path called benefit of the doubt.  This way allows for logic and romance.  It encapsulates the human, so why be one when you can be both?

Yet, you look around and you see the planet is walked on by a whole bunch of feet-draggers, stool-sifters, candy-bombers, tick-tock-watchers, love-manglers, psycho-entrepreneurs, scrotum-straighteners, hotscreen-addicts and warthog-followers.  They want to pull you down, push you around, persuade you to their way of walking and talking, force you to think this and swallow that.  For J. H. Slaggenbottom's sake, give yourself a break! Give us all a break!
