I was just glancing through the dedicated Pit thread, and came across this gem: > [@I pit Novelty Bobble](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-novelty-bobble/953914/35): > > I make my living out of questioning the orthodox positions and assumptions of brutally smart people and it can be massively uncomfortable for all concerned but I do it really well. > I’m not smarter than them but I do get paid to consider alternative views, to challenge logical chains, to weed out woolly thinking and unsubstantiated claims, to push people into doing the same, to elaborate exactly why pretty much every conclusion that seems obvious is not as simple or as clear-cut as it seems. > They never are and it is precisely that fact that leads me to engage in the way I do.
