BigPapasan made a valid point, and illustrated it with the single most appropriate image he could in a way that instantly hit home. In this particular case, he was right to call me on it.  

I've made some mistakes in judgement lately and I am owning up to it. I could make an excuse, like maybe my health, or stress about a family crisis, or an under-performing provider... but nope. Knee jerk reactions to Planet Stupid while too stoned to drive, or my old war injuries acted up while reading a meinarsche manifesto. Can't help it man, my ancestors fought the Romans, my uncles fought in the Warsaw ghetto, my father killed Nazi's and I've exchanged gunfire with terrorists and lived to talk about it. It's in my dysfunctional blood.  

You on the other hand, well... you've been rendered irrelevant.
On advice from your very own hero bigguy30 no less.
