Larry is always right, even when he was wrong.

Hero worship is the least desirable human trait.

If you think I am wrong and there are much worse things; then think about how those other things start, and persist; and if you think you've found some worse human trait that isn't brought about in the first place by some level of hero worship, and then persisted by it, please identify it.

Perl is a work of art created by an artist and published under another work of his art: The Artistic License. How can an artist not be right about his own art? It's not possible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero's_journey	[reply]

I'm not knocking the hero; just the worshipers. Only gods are infallible; and I know for certain that Larry doesn't consider himself a god. How can an artist not be right about his own art? By that statement, there would never be bad art; and that is patently untrue.
