    Default The Best of the Worst AND the Worst of the Best

    It could possibly depend on different situations and these can be discussed if required. Let us first simply holistically regard the question at hand and see what we shall come up with:

    worst of best > best of worst: true or false?
    Emotion, passions, and desires are, thus peace is not.
    Emotion: you have it or it has you.

    Yes.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    It seems like the Frontroom has spilt over into the Backroom.

    depends on your definition of best and worst and the amount of possible choices.
    If you have one choice only, the best and the worst are the same.

    If you have, say, 30 choices and you define the best as the top 10 and the worst as the lowest ten, then the worst of the best is > the best of the worst, however, applying the same rules to only 15 choices makes the worst of the best < the best of the worst, however some choices would be in both lists.

    So if the two values best and worst have to be seperate and non redundant, then yes, the worst of the best > the best of the worst.
