I think that anesthetic is a cop-out. We go through life always trying to advance pleasure and avoid pain. With pleasure, most people don't hesitate to experience it in lumps, yet couldn't bear the equivalent amount of pain. Is this arrogance? Does this upset the balance of a body's equilibrium? Are we becoming too accustomed to live without any pain? I believe that this race can survive without pleasure; pain is what reminds us to live.

Nevertheless, if you need to get stiches, and you opt out of anesthetic, know that they really fucking hurt.
