A Little Light Reading [EvolutionBlog]


I’m currently working out of my New Jersey office, which is to say that I’m visiting my family for Thanksgiving. But if you’re looking for a little light reading, try this short post by Andy Borowitz at The New Yorker:

Many Americans are tired of explaining things to idiots, particularly when the things in question are so painfully obvious, a new poll indicates.

According to the poll, conducted by the University of Minnesota’s Opinion Research Institute, while millions have been vexed for some time by their failure to explain incredibly basic information to dolts, that frustration has now reached a breaking point.

Go read the rest. It won’t take long.

I know, I know. This sort of snideness from the lamestream media is what the right feeds on, like spinach to Popeye. Very true. But I’m only human and this made me smile.
