"If you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." - Nietzsche

That quote, referenced by ministryofpeace on the original post, very adequately describes what poor Kelly must have experienced while staring into the eye of Sauron.

When Zach was prepping for work that morning there were some decisions that were made. Decisions that I can imagine he wishes he could take back.

The first ill-fated decision was the one to go to work "commando" when he realized he was out of clean undergarments. That is a bold, bold move. Let me just say that I'm no stranger to wandering around my house commando, there's something freeing about the lack of restriction and enhanced movement of the air.

But that same lack of restriction would prevent me from ever wanting to leave the house in that state, let alone go to work.

The second ill-fated decision was to couple this commando maneuver with a pair of tight-fitting slacks. If you've seen some of the wedding videos we have seen you would know that that move can be dangerous.

Those two things, combined with some bad luck, and the "Swiss Cheese Model" came into full effect... Murphy is laughing his a$$ off somewhere right now.
