Sunday

Some guy yelled at me on the street because I didn't respond to him the first time. Charming.

We're going to a show tonight. This will be a bad idea.

So, right about now you're totally regretting going to a show and trying, but failing, to get up at a decent hour. Call in sick?

There are no bad ideas, just bad consequences.

I didn't have to call in sick, but only because the evening didn't go as planned. Thankfully.

Old Mule: Isn't the difference purely semantic? Crushing my own head in a vise (for example) carries bad consequences, and that's what makes it a bad idea.

My point is a bit absurd, but still: it is not the action in and of itself; rather, it is the result(s) of the action. This is not my idea, really, it's Kant.
