Yet I'll counterpoint in a somewhat facile manner only to say that the world gets real annoying where there's no judgement and no discrimination. "And all the children are above average." That's how we end up with nationally-televised karaoke competitions, starving artist sales, and tweets during news broadcasts.

Sometimes I wish the "cultural Olympiad" still existed, with all its prizes for the best in art, music, etc.  Though the predictable rage in America when Taylor Swift only won silver would just send me further off the high dive.

Quote from: TrotskyEither that or the Dionysian games were just an excuse for betting pools.

Oh, I suspect they were an excuse for a great number of activities.

"I'd let you watch; I would invite you.
But the queens we use would not excite you."
