    Well… if you put it that way, pulling the lever at least gives me something to do in the meantime.

    I get to flip a switch and have the trolley take the tiny detour I’ve caused it. Fuck being a tiny, insignificant blip in the endless context of time. I got to pull a god damn lever and make a trolley follows a tiny bump that I’ve caused. I get to ride that joy!

    Oops, went a little off the rails about it, though…

    It’s like that light switch on my wall that does nothing. But I flip it every time I walk past.

    Except a year after I moved in, I got a letter from some woman in Germany that said “knock it off.”

      Button X - Turns on Mrs. Schultz’s porch light in Germany. So quit pressing it!

      Reference, or coincidence?

    See, if you pull the lever halfway, you have a chance to derail the trolley. No one ever mentions that.

    If you pull the lever the train takes slightly longer, annoying the people inside.
