If you were to see a house on fire, would you stand there calmly, with a smile on your face saying “Excuse me, please leave the premises, you see the house is on fire…um excuse me…?” Would you? No. Not at all, I can guarantee you, you won’t be thinking about the expression dwelling on your face, you won’t be thinking about the hoarse throat you’ll have tomorrow from all your screaming.
