I fear I would've made a terrible samurai. And I'll tell you why -- to be a samurai warrior means to live by a simple code: death before dishonour.
And the thing is, I'm very much a 'dishonour before death' kind of person. I would honestly disgrace myself -- and my family -- in any number of ways before I'd allow myself to be physically harmed.
"You want me to sell out my own mother? OK, now that's not a problem or anything, but only if promise to stop shouting at me."
And that's why I would've made a terrible samurai.

LOL! I love it!
If you were a Samurai you'd be that one in the middle holding the dolly.
Plus there's the whole hara kiri thing...I prefer a career with a slightly less painful and gross redundancy policy.
yeah, why is the guy in the middle holding a mop head?
Death before dishonor! But not before we give this shack a bloody good spring clean.
