"Put your pants on!" my sister cried as she found me waiting my turn for the shower.
At the time I was unprepared to respond to the squawking, but I later realized that she should've been thanking me for the opportunity to condition her mind. While the sight of me and my limbs is pretty horrifying, it's not the worst thing in the universe.
Take car accidents.
Or a pile of dead flaming puppies.
Or a complete solar burn-out.
When these things do occur, she will realize that she has been effectively numbed to their horror by seeing my unsightly sights and she will remain acute and alert in the face of unspeakable horrors, prepared for action.
So...you're welcome.
Let's get that right next time.
