Stupivision - By Patrice Lewis

You have to read this column by Patrice. It hits it out of the park. And there was a great comment on the Digg post by IvoteGOAfirst to this. Read this carefully:
She took the words right out of my mouth! Another thing that turns kids into non compos mentis zombies is video games. But some of the parents are into the same thing, sitting there destroying their thumbs and ambition, right alongside their kid - like little kids themselves. Read a book and expand their minds? They're not interested. Go for a walk? It's a boring idea to them. What has happened to people? They've been spoiled in "the land of plenty" with these mind-numbing electronic gadgets and games and robbed of their morals and values compass. It's all part of the dumbing-down NWO Marxist Communist liberal elites' master plan. Think about it.

It isn't just the idiot box - the TV. It's everything. There's too much to do. Hey, why go throw the frisbee around with your wife, kids and dog - while running through the sprinkler - when you can be downloading MP3's and adding them to your iPod? Why spend the time setting up little plastic players on a vibrating field when you can be playing one of the Madden NFL games? Get serious! Work just isn't as much fun as the mind-numbing-dumbing-down stuff that we can do. Hey, who even has the time to go to work anymore? Patrice, it's not just about TV.

  1. Ah yes, but remember - I only have a thousand words in this column. Gotta limit myself sometimes. There was no room to address all the other electonic ways to waste time.
