Point of View

THE BOBBSY TWINS FROM HELL

You know these guys. They're everywhere, doing all kinds of ridiculous stuff to satisfy their unquenchable thirst for attention. For them, the crazier and more outrageous the better. Very few people bother to point out how pathetic this all is, or that these people might want to seek psychological help for their addiction to adulation. This is especially true when you consider that the adulation they are receiving is all coming from people who are as damaged as they are, many of whom are simply not bright enough to see why these guys behave the way they do.

There will always be egomaniacs in every culture. But as long as there are willing victims to revere them, they will continue to be a blight on that culture. The real heroes in any culture are the polar opposite of these guys. They simply do the work without any real need to be praised for it. I used to think these guys were a joke and laughed at them. Now I just think they are sad and pity them.
