I am showing a considerable amount of restraint with the insects buzzing around my ears. I keep thinking I should swat them and make them go away, but people keep telling me that's not how you deal with insects in this day and age. I tend to think insects haven't changed over time, and are not likely to change in the future, so what does it matter if I do things your way, or my way?
The thing about your way is it takes poison and a proper exterminator, you have to make an appointment and there is so much waiting. My way is quick, brutal, and when I'm done the problem is gone.
I love a good metaphor, almost as much as I love swatting insects.
