we, humans, are creatures of habit

a) the most pragmatic, rational (IMHO) response to the rhetorical questions "why do old habits die hard" and "why people resist change"

b) a nicer way of telling someone "no matter how hard you try to change someone, they will always retain part of their individuality."
a teenage boy comes crying to his father : " why won't my girlfriend Meedith follow me to Mechanical Engineering; all she wants to do is go study Psychology. Is there anything I can do?

father: no. She doesn't deserve that you commit a St Valentines Day Massacre on her, and you can't do a rat's ass about it; the cherry-phrase we, humans, are creatures of habit applies to her too. not matter how much you have in common, she is still her own individual person.

creatures of habit

a) the rhetorical, (lol), response to the oxymoronic rhetorical questions "why do old habits die hard/ peiople resist change"?

b) a nicer way of telling someone "no matter how hard you try to change someone's undesirable (at least according to you) characteristics, they will always retain part of their individuality."
a teenage boy comes crying to his father : " why won't my girlfriend Meedith follow me to Concordia University in Mechanical Engineering; all she wants to do is go to Mcgill University and do Psychology. Is there anything I can do?

father: yes and no. yes, you can be understanding of her, and not commit a St Valentines Day Massacre on her, Im reminding you that St Valentine's is next week. and no, you can't do a rat's ass about your taxes, simply because your sigother Meredith is part of the human race, and therefore creatures of habit
