Borat vs the Creationists

A few months ago I looked at some statistics for the type of people who visit this site and much to my dismay, (this was a few days before Halloween) over 50 % of the people that visited "Perspective" logged on to the page that showed "Borat's Halloween costume!"

The mere thought that most of the people who visited the blog came here for stuff like Borat threw me into an instant and severe depression.

Here I was looking for stuff that I thought people would find interesting and instead I learn that well over half of my readers were just looking for the lowest form of humor. On top of it all, it wasn't even that funny a picture and I had serious reservations about putting it on the blog in the first place.

The thought that my blog was catering to "idiots" almost made me quit the whole thing and I had to take a few days off to reflect on what I wanted to do.

After my brief vacation I decided that from now on I would only write about things that I personally found interesting and if other people like it too then all the better. There would be no more catering to the lowest common denominator since most of those people wouldn't get what I was trying to say anyway!

With this in mind I did a survey this week on who believed what in the Evolution/Creation debate

We had found out that Americans believed in Creationism over Evolution by a margin of about two to one. But, my dear readers of "Let's get things back into perspective here" held on to the belief of Darwinism over Creationism by a factor of about three to one!!!!!!!

(It would have been higher but I have a suspicion that the Creationists snuck a few extra illegal votes in. You know, like Bush did in 2000!)

This leaves me feeling rather vindicated that I am talking to a reasonably intelligent and educated audience when I post something on this blog and for that I would like to thank each and every one of you!

Latest Gallop Poll: Half of Americans are Idiots.

I got this little gem from Les over at "Stupid Evil Bastard" and thought I would pass it along.

The results from the latest USA TODAY/Gallup Poll on Evolution continue the trend of idiocy in this country on the topic of Evolution.

“Evolution, that is, the idea that human beings developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life” is probably true: 44%!

“Creationism, that is, the idea that God created human beings pretty much in their present form at one time within the last 10,000 years” is probably or definitely true: 56%

15% also said that they would be more likely to vote for a candidate that did not believe in evolution.

That last line is the only bright spot to be found in the poll as the majority don’t think a candidate’s acceptance, or lack thereof, of evolution is relevant on how qualified a person is to be President.

Though, in its own way, that’s sort of depressing as well. Sometimes it’s amazing to me that half our population manages to avoid having their heads implode from the vacuum within.

Les; That's because they have their head stuck so far up their ass!

Stick this up your ass!

After spending the last few years wondering what the hell is the matter with my teenaged son I think I have the answer.

Watching a Discovery Channel TV program called "inside the teenaged mind," I found out that teenagers do not have a fully developed frontal cortex in their brains. This means their powers of reasoning have not been fully developed yet.

In other words they don't have a sense of normal limits, or what we adults would call common sense!

This is a partial explanation for the prank this guy guy in Britain pulled and makes me think my kid might not be that far gone after all. (Relatively speaking.)

A man has suffered severe internal injuries after trying to launch a powerful firework from his ass, it emerged today. (no pun intended)

It was thought that the 19-year-old was trying to copy a scene from the 2002 film Jackass: The Movie, which has long been condemned by safety campaigners and blamed for inspiring dangerous pranks.

At the end of a firework display in the Monkwearmouth area of Sunderland on Sunday the man is reported to have got down on all fours, lowered his trousers and bent over, then fixed a Black Cat Thunderbolt rocket to himself in front of a group of friends

One witness described how he stood up and initially appeared to be unhurt, but then stumbled and fell to the ground. It became clear he was bleeding and paramedics and police were called to the scene.

A spokeswoman for the North East Ambulance Service said: "We received a call stating there was a male who had a firework in his bottom and it was bleeding. He was attended to and taken to Sunderland Royal hospital."

The man was reported to be suffering from a scorched colon and extreme stupidity and is still in hospital. Lying on his stomach!

This also explains why the only men we can get to go to war are young people. If they asked a fifty year old like myself to go to war they would probably have to look for me in the Northern Ontario bush, or Sweden.
