By nature (I think; could be by training), I have a compulsion to push
the limits of what people expect of me, and if I can surprise someone
I feel like I've somehow earned points on some unseen Doing It Right
scoreboard.  I like to explore hidden corners of the design space
created by a given ruleset, and though I understand that other people
generally don't, I'm still sometimes amazed at how thoroughly
conventional people can be.
