Idiocracy is happening

Now it's out there for everyone to see forever. Good luck with life.

reminds me of those funny interviews on late night tv (Leno and Letterman and whatnot) where they ask college grads basic questions on their graduation day like " what country is Mexico in?" or "how many dollars would you have if you had one half of a one hundred dollar bill?", and hilarity ensues...

so what is the difference between these idiots and Zombies?

You're allowed to shoot zombies.

well.. look at the good news. If we had a major disaster and lost power in the US for a month.. most of them would die.. probably by starving to death, but there is a chance their brains would freeze up once the battery on their iphone died

Idiots don't crave brains.

This, to be honest they actively deny people trying to teach them......

Or really tough ones like "Who's the vice president?" I wonder how many adults can name the Secretary of State...or even a past Secretary of State. I'm gonna take the "low" bet on 15% I'd guess close to 50% would have no clue what you're talking about. There should be a test you have to ace in order to vote.

I bet it is lower then 15%. Hell I almost forgot that it just changed.

I can name the past Sec of State.. I can even name the Former President's, I just do not know who currently holds the position

When a new individual takes over a post formerly held by someone else, can he be said to "assume the position?"

The former Sec of State did, at least once. The current one probably does it every time Teresa walks into the room.

FWIW, this is how I quickly end most "real life" political discussions...where there's no google or wiki. One started to get really heated in the hot tub at the Challenge a few years ago.

"Before we go any further, who's the vice president of the United States?"

The guy who was an expert on politics 15 seconds before was stumped. "That's okay, I'll give you another shot. Who's the Speaker of the House?" Still nothin'. You know who you are.

That ended that, and we were able to go back to drinkin', jokes, cars & chicks.
