{{g}}The point at which the [[tedium]] of an activity becomes intolerable, such it dawns on you that ditch that you have been stubbornly insisting you will, and must, die in, is in point of fact a meaningless rut on the side of an ugly hill leading to nowhere in particular, and there is more fun to be had to threaten to die in another ditch, on another hill, on another day. | {{g}}The point at which the [[tedium]] of an activity becomes intolerable, such it dawns on you that ditch that you have been stubbornly insisting you will, and must, die in, is in point of fact a meaningless rut on the side of an ugly hill leading to nowhere in particular, and there is more fun to be had to threaten to die in another ditch, on another hill, on another day. | ||
Commercial transactions all have a point of deal fatigue — it is more or less linear —at which point everyone goes sod it, forgets about typos, gives preposterous indemnities and just signs the damn contract. Bureacratic tasks imposed by middle management do not. The potential fatigue curve for bureaucratic tasks is curved in tedial [[space-time]] into an asymptote. It gets ''close'' — very, ''very'' close —to that line, but never crosses it. | |||
