Dr. Mangosteen's Rule Of Righteous Aggression:
IF you insist on breaking a few eggs in order to make an omelet,
AND you ignore and/or suppress dissent on whether you really need to make an omelet,
AND you are given an astounding amount of eggs to make it,
DON'T look all surprised when people eventually start asking about the whereabouts of the omelet,
AND DON'T get snippy when you're told you can't have any more eggs, either.
