Why is almost every great violinist or comedian Jewish?
Midori, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Sarah Chang, and Vanessa-Mae stare at this question blankly.
Somebody's at least 20 years out of date...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dave Chappelle hasn't heard the question, because he's too busy trying to deal with being called the next Richard Pryor.
I wonder if comedy will end up being like basketball. I mean, there was a time when almost ever great basketball player was Jewish. Stuff changes. Society changes. That's where true diversity lies -- where society gives people equal shots at succeeding or failing. And for a million reasons, patterns will form and dissipate.

Once again, genetics has played a cruel trick on me.

Which makes me feel better knowing I'm only not rich because it's not something that black people (let's not mention Oprah) are designed to do.
I'm good with that.
Bunch of y'all are losers, though.

Hey just because most (X) have (y characteristic) doesn't mean that most people with (y characteristic) are going to be (X)!

It's true. I have beautiful silver nails, but not all people with beautiful silver nails are going to be me.
