The United States of America is tightly in the grip of Mediocrity.  The so called “normal” people distrust anyone who is smarter or different from them. Especially all kind of elites are suspicious.

Sure: American politicians are as corrupt and incompetent as in any other country, but still that anti-intellectualism is scary.

It way too much reminds me of the anti-intellectual tendencies and hate rallies in the Third Reich and in George Orwell’s 1984.

Today’s world is highly complex and complicated. You need to be very smart to quickly adapt and understand all the related complex situations of our global society.

It’s not about bringing up five kids and going to Washington to bring “small town values” to the rotten city. It’s about being as shrewd and smart as Putin, Mugabe and Osama bin Laden.

Sarah Palin ain’t good enough. John McCain has the experience, but lacks the quickness and eloquence. Obama has not the experience, but he is smart and quick.

All phone sex operators are sexy super models just waiting FOR YOU to call them - and tell them all your secret perversions they have never heard before.

In the age of Internets pr0n who pays for that rip-off anyway?

Well, I have seen many strange and odd USB devices, but this one really takes the cake.

A finger skateboard? Dude, I just did a 360° just with my fat fingers!

Just because everybody has a brain does mean they are all using it.

Watching fertile bimbos playing with rubber swords and acting to bad scripts doesn’t give you any real insights into antiquity.

Shows like Xena and the related Hercules - and many Hollywood and Walt Disney movies have totally twisted our understanding of the good old heroic days. I would consider “Life of Brian” almost as historically accurate as these sins.

All these script writers, directors and most of all producers should be properly crucified for these sins!

Greece and Roman history offer many amazing and breathtaking stories. Also the myths are brilliant. There is no need to spice these stories up - there is loads of blood, sex and drama in them.
