Unless you have the skills and know-how to magically bind an evil, madness-inducing primordial deity? Stay the hell away from this thing. If you do have that knowledge... someday I'd like to learn it but for now shoring up this seal would be great, thanks.

Is that a modified proverb? The phrasing sounds familiar.

[wholeheaded]

Yeah, it's a thing I do. S'posed to be the road to hell but since we've already pretty much been there some variation's in order.

I wasn't criticizing, I just was not certain if it was a coincidence. I'm less an expert on xenolinguistics than I might occasionally wish.

I get it. I mean... ditto. Same. I keep forgetting folks might not have the same linguistic reference points. Traveling broadens the mind.
