Does this sum humanity up?

[Mitera Nikkou]

Just something that I was thinking about last night, since I couldn't get any sleep. I thought it summed up humanity well enough, and I figured that I might as well see what others thought about it.

If you don't understand the meaning of the phrase, it more or less means that if there's something left to do than someone's bound to do it, for better or worse. From amazing feats to horrific atrocities.

[Haylie]

I agree. It may not be any fun, but somebody's gotta do it.

[Helel]

I'm going to be positive and say if there's good to be done, someone will do it, even if I can't do it with my own hands. :O

[Mitera Nikkou]

And if there's bad to be done, someone's going to be there to do that, too. ;p

[Raijin]

Basically like Murphy's law - What can go wrong will go wrong.

[Mitera Nikkou]

That had come to mind, but I wanted it to be neutral and all-encompassing instead of pessimistic.

[Raijin]

I think it sums up everything - really

[Sophia Anieri]

I agree with Raijin -- I don't know if it's humanity so much as just the way the universe works.

[Mitera Nikkou]

And I thought I was a pessimist... You're making me feel guilty, here. ;/

[Metroidvania]

Hmmm....I must have even less sleep than you, Nikkou, because I am undecided.....and must follow the rhyme.

[Anamnesis]

I think it's closer to "Somebody has to do it, but I think someone ELSE can."
Thusly, nothing gets done v_V

[Mitera Nikkou]

Unfortunately a lot of things get done. <_<;

[Anamnesis]

Yes. Like arguing over who's going to do things.

[Gee-chan]

I think it would be more like "Somebody had to do it....". Some kind of omnipotent being probably thought "Hey let;s make life and see what they do"


OMG!!! WE ARE REALITY TV FOR GODS!!!
