Beating a Dead Horse

I like to beat dead horses; it gives me some kind of satisfaction to know that I did everything I could to arrive at any of my conclusions or decisions. This is naturally a very stupid thing to do, and gives rise to many uncomfortable situations.

But the real problem is when you think the horse is dead and you're right about to kick it...and then it suddenly gets up and gives you a swift kick in the face.

That's why you shouldn't beat dead horses. Because damn, it hurts.

You beating a dead horse made me think of it literally. Kind of along these lines:

Sara, I love that clip & that movie! :)

Rizwan, yeah very few people will be able to decipher this one. Don't worry, I'm just very obscure like that.
