I was thinking of it like a mating display. Supposedly the goal of such a display is for the male animal to demonstrate its superior genes by wasting resources in a show of wealth, so it must purposely seek out something that is difficult or expensive to accomplish.
- seph-reed 7y agoHeh. It's pretty amazing how much of life boils down to this. I think the greatest form of it may be the act of saying "fuck you!" to every bell curve imaginable. Fuck bell curves, I'm going to do something else. I really want to start a cult of bell curve hate.
