Why would you take an escalator when you want to climb stairs?

Because it's twice as fast.

 Tyr always seems a little depressed, and more than a little cynical.

Unfortunately, i'd think the genuine love of others, sustained over a long term, and the warmth of shared experience and a deep sense of trust is the best cure, but it isn't something you can readily obtain.

  Still, I hope you end up feeling better, tyr. :)

You know, in his own viciously blunt Columbine way, Grallon does have a point:  staying with plans and schedules can lead to disappointment, and accelerate into be greater disappointment when they turn out to be unrealistic.
I'mma jus' sayin'.

No plan survives contact with the enemy.

Well, the process of planning is actually crucial. It's just that the plan is usually a complete pile of ass.
