The World Is Not a Meritocracy
Two examples:
(1) Herman's Hermits had more chart-toppers than The Hollies. (I think that's the stat; it's something along those lines.)
(2) Andy Dick charges more for appearances than Louie CK. (Although Louis CK--same guy, different head shot--asks you to contact his agent. Weird. Is that because corporate suits would naturally look up "Louis" whereas the club owners remember him from his HBO show? Is this a goof or price discrimination?)
And if you're thinking, "I've heard of Andy Dick, but who's Louis CK?" well thanks for proving my point. (Try this, but watch out for naughty language.)

"Porn is more expensive than the Bible."
Yes, but its only more valuable on the margin. It doesn't necessarily follow that porn as a class is more valued by society.

Oops sorry I think someone made a joke about Gucci shoes and I got mixed up and deleted it. Serves you right.
Come on now...
In the Army Now isn't a comedy classic?
At least it's better than Jury Duty. UGH
But Bio-Dome tops them all.
