Push,  Pull,  Click,  Click.........and so the Instructions ,  so Plainly Printed on the Silky Smooth Paper,  SHOUTED-OUT  to the User.   The User,  Pondering in His Best State of Mind,   Glared back at  the SHOUTING black letters on the Silky smooth Paper.    Are they serious,  He wondered ?   Should I actually do EACH of these steps in Exactly the Order in which they are Presented ?   What would happen if I Suddenly ,  as if I had been Engrossed in some Deep thought,  TOTALLY  disregarded the Emphatic instructions?   The User,   not accustomed to such vivid instructions,   was at a Quandary  as to what to do ! !   Being an Observer of the Satirical  Right,  Could the User in such an Abrupt state of Mind,   Actually curb his intentions,  and TOTALLY ignore the Now Blatantly LOUD  Instructions !    SUCH Simple instructions to follow,,   OR  so the Outline  implied !   Simply start at Step #A,  then proceed to Step #B and so on and so on....    ALL the way to the End and to the FULL completion of said Task.   That's All there was TO-IT ! !    but, the words of INSTRUCTION,   Now cut-back at each glance with a much Sharper Edge now,   Making the reading a TASK of Monumental effort.    Push,  pull,  click,  click..   Just that Simple,   Printed right there in Black and White,  in BOLD Classic letter style for the user to read and complete. _WHY were the Words now *SCREAMING?   and even *YELLING ?   All I simply tried to do,  MUSED  the User,  was to "DO-IT"---"MY WAY"--!     But NO,   the next thing  I know , crowing out his words,  Here come these words   Screaming and yelling,     Just like they DIDN'T  have anything better to do ! !   Why Me.   the User was now complaining,  Why Oh,  Why Oh  ME? _"WHY-NOT"   Blared out the Instructions on the Silky Smooth Paper ?    As the EXPLOSION ripped thru  the building ,  Shattering windows as far as 3 miles away.   He COMPLETED  the Instructions,  inserted KEY in door and walked OUT to SAFETY ~ Glancing Back ,  HE   GLARED  at the Smoldering  Remnants of INSTRUCTIONS ,,  THROWING OFF SPARKS,    "AS IF IN DEFIANCE"_of those who *FOLLOW-INSTRUCTIONS"
