In this large and fierce world of ours, there are many, many unpleasant places to be.  You can be in a river swarming with angry electric eels, or in a supermarket filled with vicious long-distance runners.  You can be in a hotel that has no room service, or you can be lost in a forest that is slowly filling up with water.  You can be in a hornet’s nest or in an abandoned airport or in the office of a pediatric surgeon, but one of the most unpleasant things that can happen is to find yourself in a quandary.
