Unconnected to that last one, here's an attempt at 'to be or not to be'

::
To remain this entity, contained within this form, or to relinquish it permenantly.
::

Also, a public service announcement reminding you of your mortality.
Enjoy this while it lasts.

Looks fun, too bad no one's been on for a while... anyway, here goes

Starving Wolf's challenge:

Are you walking home from work tonight?

Possibilities:

After work, you walk home?

When you finish working, do you plan on walking home?

Walking home from work tonight?
I like questions in this kind of form... dunno if the 'are you' is implied but it sounds like it fits the boot

After slaving hours, you return home by foot?

When BigMan loosens leash, you will choose to walk on feet, not sitting-roll-in-metal, to FamilyMeets?
Oo, this I like  :D

You do things outside of the norms of my culture.
Your brain works differently than mine.
What the fuck?
You confuse me.
I can't comprehend your actions/thoughts.


and to renew this challenge:

Let it be.

Let it be.

Delightfully ambiguous, Clickety Clack. Now to share my interpretations.

Leave it alone.
Stop beating a dead horse.
Put it down
Walk away.
Quit messing with it.
Let it go.
Forget about it.


I'll use a related phrase for my challenge:

It's good enough.
