"What are you doing?"

"I'm tying my shoe.  What does it look like I'm doing?"

"It looks like you just untied your shoe."

"Well. . . yeah."

"Why?"

"Oh.  Well, see the other shoe was untied.  And after I tied that shoe, this shoe felt. . . funny."

"'Funny'?'"

"Yeah. . .  So I needed to untie and retie this shoe so that I wouldn't be . . . unbalanced."

"Oh, I don't think you've solved the problem of being unbalanced."
