- DoofusOfDeath 6y ago> OK, but then almost no professional or Olympic athlete has won anything in the past 30 years. I don't know what fraction of those athletes cheated. But I consider my definition of "win" to be reasonable regardless of how many competitors cheat. This reminds me of a famous quote[0]: > When Abraham Lincoln was asked by a prosecuting attorney, “How many legs does a sheep have?” He replied, “Four.” The attorney then asked, “If you called a sheep’s tail a leg, how many legs would he have?” Lincoln replied, “Four. Merely because you call a sheep’s tail a leg does not make it one.” [0] https://quoteinvestigator.com/2015/11/15/legs/#:~:text=When%20Abraham%20Lincoln%20was%20asked,does%20not%20make%20it%20one.%E2%80%9D https://quoteinvestigator.com/2015/11/15/legs/#:~:text=When%...

This bedroom has an oven in it! This bedroom's got a lot of people sitting around watching TV. This bedroom's over in that guy's house! Sir, you have one of my bedrooms, are you aware? Don't decorate it!"
