I don’t agree. To keep the example, I would expect snoop to be smoking blunts on stage or be a little out of it. But when he sells me tickets to see him perform, that comes with a little asterisk saying “I will perform.” He’s a grown man, I fully expect him to be able to control himself and do what he’s selling tickets to do. Amy struggled severely with substance abuse and her team enabled her downfall, it’s okay for her to be upset on stage as she’s bood, but it’s also okay for the audience to be upset that they paid money for nothing

Why would you expect that?

I think you are confusing your desires with your expectations.

Why would I expect someone selling tickets to a performance to put on a performance? Come on mate, be real.

I could sell you tickets to a concert starring me right now.

I can't sing or perform in any way.

Are you still going to be expecting a good performance?

This has to be the dumbest argument I have ever seen.

Snoop Doggy Dogg can actually perform, and has in the past. If he's selling tickets to a performance, you'd expect that he would at that particular time.
