Wednesday
so, i put up an away message on aim (freudianphoenix) which read: "if there were a quota on smart people, we'd be ridiculously below it today" or something to that effect, i'm sure i remember how it exactly ended. and i get an im from an unknow party, here's what was said: a tacit war: Study: Uneducated Outbreeding Intelligentsia 2-To-1 CHICAGO—In a report with dire implications for the intellectual future of America, a University of Chicago study revealed Monday that the nation's uneducated are breeding twice as soon and twice as often as those with university diplomas. "The average member of the American underclass spawns at age 15, compared to age 30 for the average college-educated professional," study leader Kenneth Stalls said. "America's intellectual elite, as a result, is badly losing the genetic marathon, with two generations of dullards born for every one generation of cultured literates." Added Stalls: "At this rate, by the year 2100 there will be five smart people on Earth, swallowed whole by more than 12 billion mouth-breathers incapable of understanding the binary exponentiation that swamped the Earth with their like." High-school dropout Mandi Drucker, 16, said of the findings, "All I know is, we're in love." HAAA a la theonion.com. thanks a tacit war whoever you are.

today's thought:
time is way over-rated
this week's lame ass movie review (no, no, i'm not calling my review lame ass, i'm referring to the movie being lame ass)
kangaroo jack
so, what the fuck? how in the hell could this possibly ever be a movie. maybe a cartoon, you know, one of those that comes on so early in the morning that no one sees it anyway. but a movie? damn, what have we come to? answer- kangaroo jack. basically, as all great movie plots go- two dumbasses have to deliver mob money to australia (?) they happen to hit a kangaroo and think it'd be funny to take a picture with the supposed dead kangaroo and dress it up, of course, with the jacket with the money in it (see, dumbasses, but then it wouldn't make for a very good 'lame movie' if they weren't dumbasses) and naturally the kangaroo isn't dead and hops away, so that sets the movie with the dumbasses chasing the kangaroo through the outback. hence, it's my lame movie review of the week. and to think people wasted money on making this, and even worse, people wasted money on seeing this. ok, this movie's faults start with jerry o'connell (joe's apartment, mission to mars) and anthony anderson (urban legends, romeo must die, me myself and irene) as people who'd be associated with the mob. two, the director, david mcnally, has done only one movie before kangaroo jack, subsequently with an animal inserted in the title- coyote ugly, never saw, no desire to, but it still doesn't seem that impressing. somehow though, they got christopher walken. but, the country bears also got him, so, i don't know. kangaroo jack- kangaroo jack shit.
