Truly frightening...

(60,074 posts)8. I think it is called the "Peter Principle."

Because the don has risen WAYYYY above even his level of incompetency. He is the bestest at being the worstest.

CaptYossarian
(6,448 posts)10. He has far surpassed his level of incompetence.
This might be known as the Dick Doctrine.
alfredo

CaptYossarian
(6,448 posts)14. I do too.

alfredo

CaptYossarian

alfredo

You can tell he got some great insights as seen in "Mother."
CaptYossarian
(6,448 posts)23. Yes, that was another stand out.
alfredo
(60,074 posts)26. In his final year he seemed to be happy.
CaptYossarian
(6,448 posts)27. He went through the Five Stages of Death without knowing Chapman existed.
alfredo

(7,418 posts)11. Because American culture values materialism and selfishness over intellect
and the advent of television heightened it exponentially.
