Just think of all the kicks I missed out on because my friends' moms were so uncool. It makes me sad. :sniffle:

It's a strange place out there and parents don't know the half of it. I thought things were bad when I was in highschool (only 3 years ago), but the things I'm hearing now from my brothers are pretty disturbing.

Indeed, morons and worse walk the earth. Makes me sometimes think that a new form of therapy I invented a while ago, as a joke, isn’t really such a bad idea after all. My proposed therapy has two distinct phases depending on the individual case at hand. The first phase is for those with mild to moderate cases of moronship and is the acuslapping phase. For those with advanced or severe moronship we go to the acufracture phase of therapy.

Might not cure moronship but might make some of the rest of us feel better.

Kind of makes me think we should get rid of all the warning labels on everything and the lawsuits that created them and just let natural selection do its job!

Well this shouldn't tell you guys the world is full of Morons you should have known because Bush is president. This is why I don't go to parties as I am in High School and 3/4 of the people in my school are on drugs (not me) I prefer have a clean mind.

I HATE MORONS!

I totally agree with you OnTheMoor and Unseen. There have been times when Freshmen and Sophmores have come to school hungover. Even in eighth grade a lot of people talked about going and getting drunk over the weekends. Just last week the police came and did a search with the drug-sniffing dogs. Tons of other really disturbing stuff happens (like what was already mentioned). And to think: we are the highest scoring school in the district. :roll:

And my school is rated #45 in the State and last year this kid came to school with vodka in a water bottle and drank so much he passed out. Idiots.

For half a second, I though the title of this thread said "Mormons walk the Earth"

I see you have studied your Moronology. In my Moronology class we used the term moronicism instead of moronship but they are fairly close.

One key aspect of moronology is the difference between moronic behavior based on circumstance and true moronicism. For example, I once went into a ladies restroom completely oblivious to the sign. It wasn't until I saw high heal shoes in the adjacent stall that I realized my error. Was this a case of casual moronic behavior or am I a true moron? Does the recognition of a moronic act on the part of the subject imply casual moronic behavior or is the subject just more enlightened then most morons?
