K guys this is a serious question right here.
In context of this game... the same rules apply.
"Don't get hit by the things you don't want to get hit by, and hit them with the things you want to hit them with." Also-Known-As "Smash" for short, means Step 1 = Don't get hit. Step 2 = See what happens after Step 1 and go from there. Either repeating Step 1, or hitting them.
In context of life... Step 1 = See if you can pet it, because it will probably turn into a pretty butterfly.
In other news, the peeps upstairs just got a new TV, their old TV is a 65" CRT and they're giving it away first come first serve, but it's too big too fit through the doorways that lead to the basement (where I dwell in the cavern of Smashiness) due to being 29" from front to back and having weird turns around the accesses to stairs here.
So I must find a local who will get it. Things like this must remain with the Smashers.
I'm not sure this is of concern to P:M even, but 65" CRT's are sexy enough to want either way.
On top of that, I should dress like that ^ and crawl up the stairs if they ever try dropping the TV off somewhere lame without my consent. That'll learn 'em!
