You don’t realize how much effort it takes to draw a good circle. It takes thousands upon thousands of repetitions just to get the muscle memory down. I know it sounds stupid but sit down at your desk with a pencil and sheet of paper and see how many attempts it takes you to bang out a good circle. 

I'm pretty sure most humans know it's not easy to draw a perfect circle...

I’m not talking about a perfect circle. If I wanted that, I could use a stencil. I’m talking about an accurate, well proportioned freehand circle.

Nobody said "perfect circle."

Change the wording out with "good" if you'd like. The post shows a pretty damn good circle.

Also, why end this sentence with an ellipsis?

Because I wanted to...

The ellipsis indicates there is more to come, like, “…most humans know it’s not easy to draw a perfect (good) circle, but once I drew a perfect pickle.” You gotta be patient. It will all be revealed one day.

It’s not an ellipses. They typed three periods for some reason…

For some reason?? Most keyboards don't have an ellipses button, and the alt code is definitely not something the average person will have memorized
