Little wit is required in attacking a dead man,
(and this has nothing to do with criticizing a mystic or self pity  --   does it!)
[Hell, who knows if it has anything to do with anything?!  --   it just sounds interesting.])
Notice: Metaphors did not come into this world to be made fun of,
but rather to do the serious work of compensating for you not making the proper fun of yourself in the correct scientific manner.

How to undertake The Investigation:
Start at the top and work your way outward in all directions.

The way to tell you are common is if  when someone by way of perfunctory greeting rhetorically asks: “How’s it going.” --   you tell them.

The few, in their mental forest, allow no one to roll their logs,
nor do they roll those of others.
                     (Leave-alone  --  be free-alone --  'tis the only way can be done.)

One guy’s only response to any critical observation made about him personally is:
                                                                 “Pitiful, huh.”

Anything that must either exist or not exist, does neither.
