This is hard, it takes all your morals and ethics to answer.

How come when Mega Man even just barely touches a spike, he instantly dies, but when he touches a drill, it just hurts him a little? I mean, a drill is a spinning spike with grooves.
 
To lull you into thinking the easier one cannot hurt you,thus you die early and keep playing the game.
 
It seems to me sd214, a simple metaphor for life. Have you ever wondered how illogical most accidental deaths are - motorway accidents in the fog don't seem at all explicable when the fog's cleared. Or, whoom!, you switch on a light in a room you didn't know was filled with gas and you're in pieces. Those are your spikes.

Drills are noisy and obviously dangerous - so the unexpected accident is less likely to happen.

Who is Mega Man?
 
MegaMan...now there's a game I haven't heard about in a while. I used to play the one with the robotic dog in it.....damn near drove me nuts :D
 
I have to agree with freescorfr it's NEVER the big stuff that hits us the hardest. It's always those little annoyances that seem to pile up and overwhelm us.

No camel's back was ever broken by a huge piano. It's always that last straw that gets 'ol humpy down.

Because the spikes are tipped with poison. You can't tip a drill with poison; it wash out the grease and cause the drill motor to burn out.
