No, actually, that so many are competing for this award should tell you that a Bilmore Of The Day might not be the perjorative that you suggest. Sometimes, short and pithy observations that tie in earlier themes are mildly amusing and, even better, are relatively easy to compose in the midst of a hectic day.
They may not be the tent-poles of Big Ideas composed by you (like say, burritos) but such idle chatter is the stuff of internet cocktail party chatter. Shunning it in favor of the Big Ideas would make this board impenetrable.
And, as a bonus, the style of the BOTD can be easily mimicked, and affords a sheen of credibility to lurkers or infrequent posters. Personally, it is my ambition to mimic Atticus' style, but since I'm only part of the way through Emily Post's latest tome and Karen Armstrong's
The History of God, for now I'll simply have to make do.
