Ok, people who get a hard-on when their favorite team does something cool with a ball on a field of grass are not pathetic. More like a complete waste of cerebral cortex.

Generally speaking, I will be unable to go to sleep on something unfinished, no matter what time. But few disciplines can yield the same level of frustration as Mathematics, and, consequently, few yield the same sort of satisfaction when you crack a stupid two-line problem after banging your head on a wall for 10 hours.

Some people do it with math, others with computer programming, others when scoring a goal at soccer... OK, those ones ARE pathetics. I don’t see what’s pathetic with this.
