It only works in aggregate. Like how a drop of water won't quench anyone's thirst, but a 20 gallon barrel generally will.

This is why I hate group projects

College in a nutshell. Fuck you steve, thanks for phoning in your part of the final.

One thing I learned early in my academic career was that if I wanted a good grade on a group project it was easier to just do everything myself.

The sooner I can fuck off to the middle of nowhere and not deal with any of you anymore the better.

I thought the system was to dump the barrel out at the top of a hill so you can proclaim how much you're doing for the thirsty person at the bottom.

Trickle down, but for voting too!

Oh, and I guess that's what Trump literally did with the water in California, except they were different hills altogether.
