I have run into far too many people are this point who are doing exceedingly well that are dumb as a box of rocks.

At this point I sometimes think it might in some weird way be an advantage. Maybe the inability to see farther than your own personal needs creates an advantage in a capitalist society.

Sad that there are some members if our society that are so filled with hate and contempt that they follow an obvious con man and charlatan. We are in bad shape in this country and it's not for the reasons these foolish people believe.

Sadly, I live around, and know a few, people that are still voting for that piece of crap. It has seriously made me rethink a few "friendships".

It's very sad, and scary.

10. This is actually filmed comedy, not real life. I have been in focus groups before.

The camera view keeps changing and it's obviously handheld by someone standing in various places around the room.

That DOES NOT HAPPEN in a real focus group. You ARE observed from behind a large two-way mirror.

But it's funny anyway.

"caging 'em up and shipping 'em out". Then, I started getting scared. Did these people not pay attention in history class?
