Stanley

A guy who follows the rules and breaks the rules. How does he do both? I don’t know.
There once was a man named Stanley, who people considered so manly, but the truth must be told, he was not very old, and was particularly quite gangly.
What he liked most was pushing buttons, he pushed them like some sort of glutton, he did it all day, in a meaningful way, but his brain had long since ceased to function
Which is why he is in this parable, and lives an existence quite terrible, and if you aren’t so strong, and you keep playing along, you too will become quite unbearable, yes you to will become quite unbearable...........
