Longest. Post. Ever. Sorry.

Wow, that sure was a lotta garbage yesterday.... If you're just checking in here today, I recommend you skip all the stuff after "IQ" unless you're really into educational philosophy.

But the parts about the really dumb person are gods honest truth. And please don't think I was making fun of dumb people-- in fact, I usually believe that there is no such thing as "dumb people," most all of the time calling someone "stupid" is a judgment of their values-- that's just the point.

But this person however (and this will be that last time I write about the poor gal)... every day that she manages to stay out of the Darwin awards baffles me. And what's more impressive is that she somehow managed to get a college degree without ever learning that people in different countries speak different languages, or that the "middle east" isn't in "in England-- where jesus was"... she was shocked to learn that there are people in the world who don't have electricity and indoor plumbing and more shocked to learn that toasters and showers do not work without electricity or plumbing... amazed to learn that there was such a thing as deserts and bewildered that people actually live in them... she's perplexed by higher mathematics like single digit addition, and she is incapable of having a simple conversation without getting hopelessly confused. Then, when she gets frustrated and embarrassed about her inability to have a conversation she shakes her head and makes obscene farting noises and slaps and ridicules herself (which she basically does constantly)... all this without any obvious clinical mental handycap. Ah... I have so many great stories about this person, but unfortunately my blog is not anonymous enough to tell them....

It's very frightening to think of what she must have been like many years ago when she was actually in college... has her brain just atrophied in her post college years, or was she always like this?
