Are we dumb?
Be it in school, at the community pool, in the bushes or at the mall; stupidity is everywhere. Seems like as we progress with this civilization we encounter more and more dumb people. Fudge, it even became a new fad to be dumb. Shows like Jerry Springer or Povich are growing in popularity as toothless people vie to be on the tube. I wouldn’t really blame them, it’s like 98% is not even known to exist so if you have the balls to expose that your grandpa is a grandma and also your lover for that five minutes of popularity, then go for it, leave your mark on the world… even if it’s a skid mark.
If you imagine going back to the day, you would picture a rich person that would probably be intelligent and witty, even if born into money such a person would attend the finest crowds and basically be fancy by osmosis, no matter how dumb they started at. However social pressures now a days, are to be lazy, say stupid shit, and do stupid shit, no matter how un common sense they are… actually the more you go against common sense now, the more “cool” you will be. Wear sandals in a winter storm, and you would be the epitome of “coolness.” Well going back to the rich, now we have rich people acting dumb, hey they even lead in categories of dumb shit said or done, and of course the average trailer trash Joe cant be too far behind, because after all he deserves something from life and it’s to be dumb just like the celebrities from Hollywood he watches.
So are we getting dumber as every generation unfolds. Possibly yes. After all, from caveman time to now, invention of new things has to eventually slow down, I mean you can only invent a wheel once, and a hammer once too… whats left to do? After all it’s hard to impress someone with writing a nice book, or inventing something because it requires thought, and time… and why invest all that if you can accomplish the same by saying or doing something dumb… either way people will remember you.
So as you may have it, Chimbles is all for it, and gives you the permission to continue being dumb as usual. Go for it America, it’s your turn to shine.
