There aren't that many verbs beginning with Z and so it's not as if we're spoilt for choice here. Zigzag was the best I could come up with and so that's what you're stuck with, so there.
Once, when I was walking through the fields I noticed the non-straight nature of the paths. It wasn't a case of 'here's an origin and there's a destination so let's find the shortest route through the long grass to get there.' No, it was more like 'here's this dog that's pulling my attention hither and there as he makes his way from one interesting smell to another across this field so I'll follow him.' Consequently, the paths across this field alternately zig one way and zag the other way until you reach the other side.
The best way to Zigzag well is therefore not to walk the highways and byways of the city planning folk, but instead to walk on the paths across fields that have been laid down by dogs.
Dogs are cool. Enough said.
Hope you enjoyed this chapter of How to Do Stuff Well. Hope you'll be able to Zigzag with ease in the future. Hope that it's not too late to watch a movie before bedtime.
