sometimes (ok, like, MOST of the times) other people say what you want to say a lot better
people say, "why don't you make better decisions, there, little chirst?" (or words to that effect, usually with choice expletives and volume and gesticulation. text messages can seem pretty loud, too)
and it's kind of lame to say "because you can only do what you can do", or "because this is what i want to do, even though i recognise the poor decision making inherent in my current thinking", or even my stock favourite, "needs must as the devil drives" (although at the moment, with a shattered windscreen, no WOF and no rego, the devil doesn't drive very frickin' far at the moment)
so kudos to robert downey jr, talking about his behaviour a few years ago, - i can't get it out of my head at the moment: "it's like i have a loaded gun in my mouth, and my finger's on the trigger and i like the taste of gunmetal"
i'm pretty sure i can change. i think i can, i think i can. i am the little engine that could
maybe
