Your PlayStation's down? Good. Now what?

Alright, "Sony PlayStation Network" trending. Another damn outage. Knox is talking about the outrage, saying it's missing the point. He's right, mostly. But let's be honest, people are mad because their escape hatch closed. Their little slice of comfort, gone.

*Ha!*

You know what doesn't have an outage? Your damn feet. Your hands. Your ability to pick up something heavy and put it down. Your ability to read a book. Learn a skill.

You want to complain about your PlayStation not working? Fine. But then you better use that time to *suck less* at something else. Anything else. Get off your ass. Doesn't interest me if you're upset about pixels. What interests me is what you do when the pixels fail. Find the next damn step. Always.
