Pulling an imaginary rope

Last night, the gang and I were watching Animaniacs (as we do), and one of the short cartoons involved a mime pulling an imaginary rope until a very visible and solid bag of sand landed on him.

My response? "Sometimes imaginary things have real consequences. Let that be a lesson to you all!"

I think that sums up my life, and the lives of other people who may be reading this, fairly well. In more ways than one, obviously.
