Stress Relief

[steepholm]

My daughter introduced me to this oddly cathartic program. If you're growing frustrated with an essay, or can't make that story come out right, or are generally coming off worse in the latest tussle with language, then what could be more appealing than to attack the recalcitrant screen with a flame thrower or a machine gun, or to scatter your text with word-eating termites? When you're done, you can wash it all clean again (and stamp on the termites).

Pointless bliss.

I find termite-stamping especially therapeutic. Thanks to your daughter!

I think I need that. Only the flame thrower really needs to work on craptastic prose.

Paranoid about downloading stuff so will take your word for it, but it sounds great!

That's adorable.
