It's been my experience that each one of us is guaranteed a visit from humiliation in our proper turn. It often arrives without warning and is usually demeaning (which is why it's called humiliating).

So knowing that each one of us will get our fair share in the end, I'm baffled as to why anyone would elect to buy into it.

But there's no accounting for taste or tendencies: if you like the rough stuff, you can pay at auction for an opportunity to play chess with Garry Kasparov.

They're kicking off the bidding at $2K.
