There are some rococo forms that, although not....brief....are nevertheless capable of sustaining a good laugh. But I'll live with the generalisation.
As for the other things, I suppose these disturbances works both ways, just with different effects. As with all these things there is inevitably some feedback. Look at remote prayer. Non-rational stuff if ever I heard of it, but which nevertheless coincides with statistical anomalies.
I wonder how much of the Music biz runs off this sort of applied charisma? How else does one explain boy bands? In fact, how much of life is in thrall to the charismatic? I fear I may well be guilty of the overuse of such a quality: it is a bit like beauty I suppose, and folk just end up doing things to please one. It's certainly a trap the lazy can fall into.
In this particular case I blame the season. And just like one can't sue Old Nick for his damnable crossroads franchise, one can't sue Nature for reminding one of ones capacity for stupid behaviour.
Hope young Rockstar is knocking 'em out with his brilliance.
