    Sure, why not. I’m a moustache-twirling villain who personally despises your favorite binkie. All the explanations are just a clever ruse to baffle and trick people, so they’ll think problems have causes.

    Let’s pretend grading on a curve means everybody gets the same gold star.

    Let’s pretend “competitive” means exactly what you think, no more and no less.

    Why should the dirt leagues be “competitive” in your definition?

    Why should the lowest rungs of that ladder be as cutthroat and merciless as the upper echelons? It’s fuckin’ little league. We’re talking about people who suck so hard that one guy with a fresh account can demolish them. This is what handicaps are for.
