Context is not important, other than that some real-world events can be defined as "grinding", but do not have a progress bar. I point out, well, one may create one's own. As witness:
I meant to tell you just how much this amused me when I saw it. Now, I have had mental progress bars in my head, ever since.
Oh, and as a side note... Do you know of any uber-list of lj theme days/commonly observed special events? (Talk Like a Pirate day, Pi day and Rabbit Hold Day we have, a friend was just asking if there were more, and if a list existed.)
