Saying dumb people would die as if it's a bad thing?

Where have you been?

I honestly believe that-- that the average person is stupider today than they were say 1,000 years ago.

The total of IQ points on the planet is a constant - the population is growing.

Bless her heart.  She only wanted to know if it would get her where she needs to go. She doesn't care if it will stop when she gets there.  Maybe she has sense enough to drive it uphill to stop it.  Or drive it into a hay bale.  You big meanie.



Where are we going and why am I in this hand basket?

Let her have the car, it's just evolution in action, maybe it will kill her before she breeds!

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

Yeah.

Kinda lucky breathing isn't a voluntary process.

So many would croak.

Not lucky for us...

Brain Boru? Really?  Related? I am.  I'm 2,554,721 in line to the Irish throne.  Cool

Yes, looking at statistical analysis will clearly show the IQ of world population remains constant. Numerically, there are obviously a lot more stupid people . Looks a lot worse than it is thanks to IT;  Dashboard cameras, Facebook, Twitter, and of course Youtube and reality TV.

The good news is that the top 1-3% have also increased numerically.More people to think great thoughts , and more people to support them while they do it.
