I agree with Sam down here, but I think it doesn't even have to get that far. What is a takeaway here? I think it is if you do anything further in a situation like this, the best outcome...and that is if everything goes right and the wind is at your back...the best outcome is that you don't fuck anything up.

I can say that with such certainty because I've done the same fucking thing. I'm not on a moral mountain looking down at you. I'm looking across at you. I contemplated a similar no win situation and writing about yours is strengthening my resolve.

How about we both run Scooby Doo style away from situations like this starting now.
