I think we need a new paradigm of dumbness




"Say, did you hear that Don Lemon on CNN says that the greatest terror threat in our country is white men? Pretty idiotic, eh?"




"I can top that. Former CEO of King Broadcasting, Steven Clifford, says that the federal government should disenfranchise all straight white males."



"Whoa! That's some lab-quality stupid right there! Um, just how does this genius propose to take the vote away from, what, a quarter to a third of the U.S. population?"



"Good question. I suppose force would have to be used. I'm sure all of those straight, white male cops and soldiers would be happy to enforce a law that deprives them of one of their fundamental rights."




"Well. that's got to be the dumbest thing we'll hear today."



"Hey, guys! Guess what; some Democrat state senator in Missouri just posted a comment on Facebook calling for Trump's assassination."



"Ok, maybe the second dumbest thing we'll hear today."

Ace uses Kohn (as in Sally Kohn) as the dumbest possible measurement. So he'll rate idiotic statements at, for example, 850 millikohns.

I'm not sure that modern technology is up to building instrumentation that could survive the environmental conditions surrounding the current levels of stupidity.

But if the equipment fails, there's always the Calibrated Eyeball, Mark I.

You just had to run all those photos of Democrat candidates, didn't you?

When one group of men try to take over another group of men, that's usually called a war.

Hey I just watched Wonderwoman and liked it a lot as fantasy, Gal Gadot isn't only beautiful but has this very attractive innocence and naivete, superb acting, she melts your heart. The guy with her does a lot of mansplaining all the time about the real world, while she's proved right in the fantasy world.

Ya know, they used to talk about the world reaching "peak oil".

Is there such a thing as "peak stupid", and if there is, we have to be getting close. Right?

R-man: I'd like to think so, but I think I'm going to be disappointed.

Stupidity flaunts the Third Law of Thermodynamics through behaving like the mythical perpetual motion machine. I suspect that there is a hidden energy source, but finding and stomping it to death has proved elusive for generations of genuine truth seekers.
