Lesson learnt: if I want to talk about something, start a thread on an entirely unrelated topic.

Anyway. We'll see. I'm going to start throwing some threats around and see if they give a shit.

I'd give the going it alone option a shot if it's in your mind now, otherwise you'll regret not doing it in later life.

I'm wondering what it could be compared too, if anything.
