Why pieing is a good approach to life

I just have these ideas sometimes. I have to try something that just pops up in my head. It's not about bad impulse control, as I often fetter about it in my head for some time before actually doing something about it, but rather about a mixture of curiosity and a fetish for experiencing new stuff.

Taking a cake and throwing, pushing or in some way placing it straight into another fellow beings face is often seen as an act of degradation or aggression, but I had this sudden idea the other day that - what if I was to explore the positive and even sensual sides of "pieing" (in Swedish: "tårtning")? What if there is actually some enjoyment to be had not only from giving the cake (obviously), but also from receiving it?

One could easily find truths about life itself from the act of getting a cake in one's face - sometimes life deals you setbacks, but if you think about it you can often find the sweet part in adversity; make something good out of the bad.
