These guys took the tragic view of what Hal called the “beauty of averaging.” Note a similarity between the beginnings of their mantra and Cunningham’s “Meditation”:


Gloom, despair, and agony on me (oh!)
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery (woe!)
If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all (oh!)
Gloom, despair, and agony on me


A pun leading into a Hamlet reference, tying Calvinism into statistical generalities, plus a “Hee Haw” gag ? now honestly, where else other than the Locker Room are you gonna see that?
