Based on the simple observation that anyone really brilliant/artistic (yes
there is a difference) that I've ever met was at minimum manic-depressive,
and everyone brilliant in history is portrayed as a lunatic lopping off
their ears or electrocuting themselves with kites in thunderstorms - I
generally assume that "sane" people aren't worth wasting my time on.

Can you think of anyone you know that's "sane" that doesn't also have the
same intellectual and entertainment value as dirt?
