re: Should high school homecoming courts be done away with?

You know, if it lets them work out their stupid life cliches (really popular and attractive couple wins homecoming, really odd and unattractive underdog wins homecoming) then let em keep doing it. They'll look back and either feel like such fools that they refuse to speak of the incident ever again and become better people for it. Or they'll rest easy on this completely insignificant accomplishment for the remainder of their worthless lives and it will make it much easier for the rest of us to pick out the douche bags.

I see no problem with this charade.
