Can People Really Be This Dumb?!?

Post by colchar » February 20th, 2010, 2:31 pm

The letter posted on the site linked below is both hilarious and deeply disturbing at the same time. How can people be so stupid and uninformed? Some of the comments posted after the letter are also pretty good. Too bad the person who wrote the original email will probably never realize it was posted nor see any of the comments that follow it.

Yes, I liken it to the many remakes of songs...there are very few new good ones so people just keep copying others.

Sadly, I find many undergrads to be uninformed morons as well - and you would expect better from them.

I do believe I'm dumber for having read that. Did the person really ask How can a werewolf be killed with a silver bullet? I thought that was covered in werewolves 101
