I know I can be pretty verbose here- and I have a tendency to use the phrase “favorite”, or ” best ever”, more than a subjective party should use. However, I have found something that really does qualify as genocide-inducing fear.
This Study concludes that those with a lower IQ have sex earlier and more frequently. People with an IQ of 75 ( which is 5 points away from mental handicap, mind you) had the lowest chance of virginity. If your IQ was 100, you where anywhere from 1.5 to 5 times more likely to have sex (as a teen) than someone with an IQ of 120.
Congradulations, Humanity. We have nipped Natural selection in the bud. Our intelligent peoples are being subjugated against, some sort of inane, MTV fueled clusterfuck of stupidity, this one of the few times I can use “Clusterfuck” in the literal sense. We’ll just Devolve from here on in, I suppose; we can look forward to further and further generations, discussing such lofty philosophical concepts as “The Shoe/Nail relationship (in both color and style)” and “Ignorance isn’t just the law; it’s a good idea!”*
Call me old fashioned, but shouldn’t the smarter people be the one mating? y’know, passing on the best of this generation onto the next? I weep for the future.
Then again, my higher than average IQ may just be making me the slightest bit jaded.

So there I was, on the interwebs, when I come across this article. Apparently, this is some sort of press release telling the world that “This new machine we have will totally not destroy the world, man.” This is equivalent to your buddy, half-drunk, approaching you with the phrase “Hey, you didn’t want your car, did you?”
You, the invested observer, respond; “Well, Did you do something to my car?”
The hopeful liar pauses, before finally saying, “No.” Lets all toast our impending doom.
In other world-might-be-ending-soon news, I am considering obtaining an apple product- a laptop of some sort, to be precise. Many people will be quick to shout hypocrite, because they know my disdain for the company. But my new train of thought was spurred on by a work announcement and some inner meditation.
At work, we were told that we would be starting “hero jobs” on Mac computers – i.e., we would begin fixing them. Now, my first (snarky) remark was “but don’t they ‘just work’?” but I was immediately stymied by the logic behind us fixing it; people who use macs don’t have it break often, so when it does break, they do not know what to do and will, more or less, freak out ( reinforcing my point; It’s a My First Computer). However, this began to make me think, and I really dissected what I do not like about apple into two things;
1. The iPod, and;
2. People who use Macs.
With 1, I simply believe it to be a bland platform that has established a brand and is resting on it’s laurels. It needs some sort of Innovative Competitor to get it off of it’s ass and start getting better, or it will be overtaken.
As for 2, of course I do not mean all Mac users- I mean only “those” mac users. You know…. the ones who use snarkiness to imply that anyone who uses an “inferior” operating system is three hairs away from an ape. I invision them at one giant starbucks inside of a mac store, sitting on oblong chairs and discussing movies that they will never make. These people I hate with a passion; In fact, one could say that I identify them more outwardly then I do by Mac usage.
What really hit me more than anything was the fact that I realized I know very little about the ins and outs of such a machine. There is a world of information that I need to conquer; an entire sphere of thought that lies at my feet, untouched by my hands. I feel the need to conquer a new interface, and so I choose this, my latests rival-come-friend.
But I am going to Boot camp the living hell out of it.
