Why is that a bummer?
The ant misses out on good times and bad ones- the grasshopper lives for these extremes. If you want to live it up and accept that you'll have to pay for it in the morning- hell, knock yourself out. All too often though you get grasshoppers who think they can be ants when it's wintertime, or don't think winter will ever come (Wall St. comes to mind). There's the real bummer.
That's just typical grasshopper thinking. "Oh, I can turn it on when things get tough."
I don't think you have a choice, you're either a grasshopper or an ant.
or a grape.
Wow...suddenly Kung Fu the TV series makes sense !
