Unsliced bread, of course.

The song is "Enter Sandman," not "Entering Sandman."

Well now you're just grasping at straws.

C'mon, fess up. Who was it that entered you?

Because the only thing that allows us to survive is hope, but hope sometimes works against us.

Nope. Sorry. It's "Enter Sandman," as in stage directions. It is the Sandman doing the entering.

Because Art, like all humans, is true to his nature. And Art's nature is being a filthy little bugger. :)

If it were Sandman doing the entering, it would be "Enter, Sandman". Without the comma, it can only mean that Sandman is being entered.

C'mon now, out with it.

Isn't that part of a quote from a Satanic Bible, the part about man being tru to his nature?

Ah, but in stage direction, there is no comma. Check and mate my little friend.

***

Not a direct quote, but the basic gist is in there. But it's also in a lot of other books, too. LeVey plagiarized/paraphrased most of what is in the Satanic Bible from earlier writings and beliefs. Or as practitioners would say, "distilled." Ah well, if Shakespeare can do it, I guess anyone can.

I can't speak to whether or not Art is in the Satanic Bible.

You ever hear the song Celtic Sonant by Ray Thomas?  When I play it now I think of you.

Does it annoy you when people repeat themselves? Also, do you find redundancy irritating? How about when people ask the same question several times, as though they'll get a different answer?
