I’m sitting at the library, at a table behind a couple in their teens.
Guy: This is so annoying. I hate history.
Girl: Don’t you find it interesting, at least a little bit?
Guy: No, it’s just a retarded amount of reading.
Girl: Well, I think it’s interesting.
Guy: What? Who cares how WWI started; it’s over, isn’t it? Let’s, like, move on, y’know?
Girl: You’re stupid.
Me: [leaning back in my chair to interrupt] Maybe he isn’t stupid – maybe his intellectual-curiosity just doesn’t naturally extend beyond video games and porn.
[pause]
Or, perhaps his mental-capacity is just too small for the questions he’s pondering.
Guy: [to girl] Yeah, maybe it’s my mental...
[pause; to me] Actually, that sorta sounds like the same thing as being stupid.
Me: It’s exactly the same thing.
[pause]
God you’re stupid.

Is it moral to mock the stupid?
Or is it, rather, our moral duty to mock stupidity?
I love it when life throws up questions like that.
did ypu really say that shit? class!
You made me spit out my coffee, and I'm not even a spitter!
I have that boardgame. It's fun.
I wanna be YOU in that conversation.
Was it, by any chance, George Bush sitting behind you? No, that would be unlikely as you were in a library.
Now that's just all kinds of awesome.
If you really do say half the shit you tell us you say then I will have every single one of your babies. (and I'm pretty sure this comment will hold up in court, you're welcome.)
I despair for our youth. Wait. I don't want to claim them. I despair for YOUR youth.
Also? I am not shitting you. The word verification right now is "pukings." Honest.
