Band Members: "making an uproar around the castle, not knowing what to do. Bakunin got out of his conveyance, and, without wasting any time to find out what the dispute was about, formed the peasants into ranks and instructed them so skilfully that by the time he resumed his seat to continue his journey, the castle was burning on all four sides"AARON BACHELDER ---

Sounds Like: you know when your at someone's house for dinner and you flush the toilet and it keeps running so you panic and jiggle the handle and it just makes it worse, and now waters going everywhere, moving out the door towards the dining room, and you know the wife sees it and gets mad as hell, and the others think you stopped up the toilet because you have no crapper etiquette. so you start rummaging through the cabinets looking for towels to staunch the flow, but it just makes a bunch of noise and now they think your just being obnoxious and shitting all over the damn place. well, it's the sound your spirit makes as it's crushed into oblivion by a faulty toilet.
