Thyme Machine
When a friend that you know well is very disappointed with something, anything, that you did in the past, here are your options…
1. Do nothing, say nothing. It’ll either blow over, or your friend will.
2. Apologise profusely, even if there is no need to. This approach runs the risk of repeat events based upon your gullibility.
3. Use facetiousness to pointlessly make your point. You know, ‘I’ve bought a time machine to go back and fix things’. Bound to never work.
4. Sit down with the pig in an attempt to teach it to think. You won’t be thanked and it won’t work.
5. Send in a village elder as a proxy, to fix things. This is the only strategy that has any merit.
