Yesterday, quite by accident, I found some cash while out in the street. Not a fortune, I couldn't retire on it. If I were to take that money, buy a boxcutter (what we call a Stanley knife) and then slice up an OAP for her pension money, who is responsible? The little old lady for being in the wrong place at the wrong time? The post office teller who paid her the money? The DWP officer (of which I used to be one) who handles her pension claim? The guy in the shop who sold me the knife? The person who lost the money in the first place for me to find? The people working in the Royal Mint who printed all that money? The designers who struck the printing plates from which the notes were minted? The guy who invented the fiscal system of trading cash for goods and services? Mr Ugg or whatever his name was who invented sharp implements at the dawn of man?
At some point you have to stop this childish game of according blame for your own actions on the bogeyman. My little niece Rosie turned nine a few days ago and she'd be embarrassed even to try the "Mr Nobody" argument you're spouting here.
(Incidentally, I didn't really find any money. Well, a penny, but I left it where it was.)
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
