You should have done what you did do.
The point is, once it was done, the circumstances changed, and yet, you keep ignoring that while trying to reference back to the initial choice to justify continuing your behavior without recognition of the change in circumstance.
Do you remember the shit-sandwich meme?
I made that. It was very popular during the election, because it was true: We had a bunch of sandwiches wheeled out before us, and we were told "All these sandwiches DEFINITELY contain, or are made out of, human shit. Its a fact. Now, this sandwich MIGHT contain or be made of human shit… But you won't be able to tell until you bite into it. You must eat one of these sandwiches, so which sandwich do you want to eat?" and rightly so, the correct decision to make was to take the one that MIGHT not be made of or contain shit.
Because the possibility of not eating shit is better than the certainty of a shit sandwich (is how the meme went).
Well, we bit into the sandwich.
At first, we thought it might be a real sandwich, didn't taste too bad at first, those few first few chews.
But now we're halfway through chewing those first bites, and the taste of shit is flooding our political mouths. Because the sandwich, it turns out, is just as full of shit as all the others - or at least, its as full of shit as matters for it to be defined as being a shit sandwich, just like the rest.
You, however, want us to keep chewing aggressively, while proclaiming that the sandwich, actually, doesn't taste THAT bad and the shit is a good kind of shit, as opposed to an especially nasty type of shit, so, ya know, its okay. Its the best we could do. We should be glad we didn't get it worse.
That's what you say, while chewing on a mouthful of shit.
And your shit-stinking breath as you screech these words only make it more obvious that you are entirely full of shit. Just like the sandwich we're stuck eating.
