Urgh (A title I have used before and probably will again)

Gods. I'm supposed to be doing work for my degree, doing work for UESP, and writing a eulogy for my grandmother's funeral, and I'm sitting here watching the idiots in Parliament shuffle around pawns on a chessboard instead.

Comment from a friend - "Pretty sure chess is too advanced an analogy. They're moving the same two checkers back and forth endlessly."
