"Imagine that you have to break someone's arm.
Right or left, doesn't matter. the point is that you have to break it, because if you don't...wel, that doesn't matter either. Let's just say bad things will happen if you don't.
Now, my question goes like this: do you break the arm quickly -- just snap, whoops, sorry, here let me help you with that improvised splint -- or do you drag the whole business out for a good eight minutes, every now and then increasing the pressure in the tiniest of increments, until the pain becomes pink and green and hot and cold and all together howlingly unbearbale?
Well exactly. Of Course. The right thing to do, the only thing to do, is to get it over with as quickly as possible,. Break the arm, ply the brandy, be a good citizen. There can be no other answer.
Unless.
Unless unless unless.
What if you were to hate the person on the other end of the arm? I mean really, really hate them.
This was the thing I now had to consider."
