To help undergrads grasp cognitive dissonance effects, I often end my lecture on this topic with "Be careful who or what you sacrifice for."

Apparently I can quote-boost my own reply to my own post. The narcissistic possibilities expand like a blackberry bush in western Washington.

@guyjantic okay, you are familiar with western Washington. The only thing more powerful than a blackberry bush is a herd of goats.
@DragonBard I wished several times that I had a herd of goats... or anything, really, as I was using a weed whacker, machete (much more effective), or pruning shears (ridiculous) on a blackberry bush the size of a suburban home on orders of my mother or my employer.
