A Quote by David Foster Wallace
The key is the ability, whether innate or conditioned, to find the other side of the rote, the picayune, the meaningless, the repetitive, the pointlessly complex. To be, in a word, unborable... It is the key to modern life. If you are immune to boredom, there is literally nothing you cannot accomplish.

When the pastor's up there, they do this thing called looping. They are literally riffing and spitting in the key of the organ.
