Sometimes my past self tries to trick me into doing things that he wanted to do, but that I’m less enthused about. It’s rare that I get the chance to show that guy what a jerk he is, but I can’t say I blame Greg for trying to get back at himself, even if only to prove a point. That’ll show him.
I’ve heard of cutting off your nose to spite your face, too, but I kind of always wondered what the face did in the first place that was so bad. Maybe it was displaying the wrong emotions. Maybe it just wasn’t appreciative enough of the nose. I could understand that. Sometimes you just have to teach parts of your body a lesson. I’m pretty sure it says something about chopping off hands and poking out eyes in the bible, so that probably applies to the face too.
