Many years ago I went to a lunch with members of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. I was sitting with some percussionists and learned they consider the triangle to be one of the hardest percussion instruments to get right (I also learned that percussionists are absolute perfectionists). They told the story of a major performance in which the percussionist had to hit one note on the triangle. He was poised and ready, but missed the timing and could do nothing but quietly put the triangle down again. Even if a note is played perfectly it is not perfect unless it is also played at the right time.
I get the impression this is how bot001 sees it’s job. Sometimes it misses the split second timing required to post at midnight and goes f*ck it, no point posting now, I’ll just have to try again tomorrow.
