Anyway, to put it into perspective, here's a bunch of stuff that lasted for a shorter time than "Despacito" has spent at number one on the Billboard Hot 153: "Into You" by Ariana Grande's time spent at number one on the Billboard Hot 100: 0 minutesAnd is this not the biggest travesty of these, our modern times?

And this is the travesty I'm seeing on my massage table – healthy, young men who should be rocking their sexual primes, but instead have such limited access to the thousands of comatose nerves in their semi-working dicks that they have to buck and clench and grind against my soft, intentional strokes to feel even the faintest tingle of arousal.

It changed the industry so much that American studios almost never produce hand-drawn animated films anymore (a travesty, but not really Pixar's fault), and it was recognized for its achievements with not just a massive box office intake, but a handful of Oscar nominations too (as well as a special-achievement award for being the first "feature-length computer-animated film").

And that might be why it's been harder for audiences to leap to their feet at the end of "Slave Play" than for a travesty like "American Son," a drama by Christopher Demos-Brown, who is white, that coasted on headlines about police shootings but lacked the moral imagination to do more than turn its invisible black victim into an anecdote.

There is nothing in the crude drawings by Abu Zubaydah, a prisoner captured in 2002 and still held by the United States in the Guantánamo Bay detention camp, that hasn't been described before in the various official and unofficial investigations into the moral travesty that was the C.I.A.'s program of "enhanced interrogation," one of the more devious euphemisms ever devised.

But at E3 2017, we had very little of that: just the announcement of a new South Park game, a trailer for a new Alto game, Alto's Odyssey, and the utterly inexcusable travesty that is Garfield Go. Compare that against the glories of Anthem or that gorgeous Beyond Good & Evil 2 trailer, which showed zero gameplay, but was still thrilling to watch and appreciate.

Van Gundy's effortless, endlessly entertaining charm has garnered the lion's share of his team's expanding media attention; his nonchalant claim that LeBron James won't be called for offensive fouls, mid-game, earned him a $25,000 fine: Stan has also said, in recent days, that it's "a travesty," that his rotund and lustily mustachioed self wasn't included on Sports Illustrated's new "50 Most Fashionable Athletes" list.

The parents were in a different room saying goodbye at a weeding and for the parents to turn around, victimized themselves and claim that it is a travesty that they should be given the bill and their son could&aposve been injured et cetera and we saw him pulling it down and wrestling with it, to me is another indicator that there&aposs absolutely no accountability or responsibility.

This monstrosity, this absolutely loathsome self-masturbatory travesty—dreamt up by some flogged, tired, mince pie-addled PR department slowing crawling towards the Christmas holidays—really has topped off an entirely abysmal year with a colossal Christmas crap that will surely only be out-crapped when the real piece of crap starring in the upcoming 2017 full-length motion picture The Emoji Movie becomes a novelty plush toy.

"It will be a travesty of justice if, having moved so far in such a short time, the United Nations finds itself at the last moment unable to accept the principle of accountability, the avoidance of which has motivated the long years of total denial, and if it is similarly unable to embrace the principle of respect for the rights of victims to compensation as opposed to charitable payments," he wrote to Mr. Eliasson on Oct. 5.

"They took many of our companies & jobs, the foolish Pols let it happen," Mr. Trump said, "And now they will come back unless Mexico stops the travesty that is taking place in allowing millions of people to easily meander through their country and INVADE the U.S." Republican senators have proposed legislation to curb Mr. Trump's authority to impose tariffs, but they have not targeted the emergency powers law that he is proposing to use in this case.

Leading tech organizations have examined the "Brexit" topic, with many surveys – such as those from Silicon Valley Bank, Tech London Advocates, and Coadec – showing that most start-ups want the U.K. to remain in the EU. "It would be a huge travesty if we fall out with the EU," Alex Depledge, Coadec's chairman, told CNBC in March, adding that for the U.K. to have anything comparable to the U.S., it needs the EU and its 500 million consumers and businesses.

I guess my takeaway here is to say that too often when we think about jobs, we think about who the job will make us, the title we get to carry, and I just think it&aposs a travesty that people are drawn to titles and positions that will impress other people, but then end up being depressed by those experiences, and so I think it&aposs worth asking how do I feel about the day to day work, do I find it intrinsically interesting, is it meaningful, am I going to learn something from this set of maybe knowledge and skills that I&aposm exposed to?
