1. It is happening
I found out yesterday that the stupidest living person is going to have his fourth child, with his third women.

Literally the stupidest piece of human shit that ever lived. Drink a 30 pack of busch lite every day, multiple domestic battery charges, multiple DUIs, less than high school education, never held a job for over a year, and multiple years in jail.

He literally sounds like Freeto.

2. Ugh...
On the other hand, isn't Idiocracy the most accurate portrayal of how bad it swear it's going to be, sometimes?

Mike Judge is right on the edge and this movie is frighteningly hilarious.

3. frighteningly accurate
As the 21st century began, human evolution was at a turning point. Natural selection, the process by which the strongest, the smartest, the fastest, reproduced in greater numbers than the rest, a process which had once favored the noblest traits of man, now began to favor different traits. Most science fiction of the day predicted a future that was more civilized and more intelligent. But as time went on, things seemed to be heading in the opposite direction. A dumbing down. How did this happen? Evolution does not necessarily reward intelligence. With no natural predators to thin the herd, it began to simply reward those who reproduced the most, and left the intelligent to become an endangered species.

The years passed, mankind became stupider at a frightening rate. Some had high hopes the genetic engineering would correct this trend in evolution, but sadly the greatest minds and resources where focused on conquering hair loss and prolonging erections.

Narrator: Unaware of what year it was, Joe wandered the streets desperate for help. But the English language had deteriorated into a hybrid of hillbilly, valleygirl, inner-city slang and various grunts. Joe was able to understand them, but when he spoke in an ordinary voice he sounded pompous and faggy to them.

5. I really wanted that movie to be funny.
Would have been a funny short-film, but the joke was stretched way too thin by the end of the movie.
