The Hubba Hubba

"Daily we see the height of intellect and the depth of stupidity which humanity can produce. It follows that if you are capable of one, you are capable of the other. Why should I expect any less from a fool than I expect from a genius? That way he is marked honestly, and he often surprises himself." -- Lacoon's Children, Sam Starbucks

What the hell. Nearly got myself into another accident running up the stairs to my apartment.

I was running up seven stories after my usual 2.4km run when upon reaching my floor I nearly got my eyes poked out by one long bamboo protruding from the stair railing.

You see, usually, when one is running up the stairs, one does not look up. One would usually be looking at the steps or looking in front, so imagine the rude surprise I got when I -- by sheer luck -- looked up at the crucial moment, saw the bamboo sticking out, and stopped myself from running into it.

Honestly, I have no problem at all with my neighbour drying their clothes in the common area near the staircase using the railing to support one end of the bamboo, but surely it doesn't take rocket science to realise that one definitely should not leave that much bamboo sticking out at where the steps are.
