Blog Challenge: 2/25 - Going to Ground

Have you noticed that doors don't work anymore?

In theory they should prevent people from going through what is (at some times) an opening in a wall. Sadly, it appears that most people have evolved the physical ability to open most doors, and the emotional confidence to not worry about the consequence of walking through the door uninvited (for example: me leaping from my chair, wrapping my legs around they torso, wrapping my hands around their neck, and screeming and squeezing until they stop struggling).

So I have a modest proposal: hiding is the new door of the 21st century. If you don't want someone to come into a room and bother you then don't be in the room. Besides, you can always train an orangutang to do the jumping and squeezing bit.
