I laughed so hard I scared the dog.

HOW? how do people believe this? I mean, seriously did they just break the knob off on the old black-and-white on the Fox channel?

I mean, if you can put ONE positive on Trump winning the election, it basically makes it so painfully obvious just how fucking stupid we are overall as a country.

I think its nearly as bad that people are shocked there are this many people that are this stupid. The how is that simple, we have A LOT of people who REALLY ARE this stupid now.

I've always been the gifted kid. Always bored in AP classes, got 4s on a few AP exams (I think that was the highest?) and got college credits for it. I never thought I was terribly smart but I knew I was higher than average in a classroom setting. I know that I know next to nothing.

I genuinely thought people were smarter than they are. I had the average intelligence thing skewed towards the right end of the bell curve. I'm CONSTANTLY shocked at the lack of critical thinking. HOW can you go through life like that?!
