I have a theory that a lot of the worst people (Ted Cruz, DOnald Trump) would not be in our hair if they had been able to be even remotely successful in the arts. I believe Elon Musk would give it all up for a couple of spots at the Comedy Store. Unfortuntely, people don't find carrying a sink funny so here we are
