Media Piranha - August 2007

The Dumbing Of Society

August 26th 2007 12:17
There was talk in certain universities of higher learning if it would be better to become an athletic rather than an academic university. The argument is that athletes lack intelligence and get scholorships based on their athletic abilities. Tell me that there are exceptions in any college or university and I will accuse you of being blind or actually believing a lie. Yes there are intelligent athletes, but the majority have been hit in the head way too many times!

The lowering of an overall IQ isn't limited to athletes. It also can be credited to many people who get by on their looks. Many students in the US can't find the US on a map! I think the 1 in 5 figure is too kind. Dummies are really confused now since math is non-existant to the painfully stupid!


Meet Miss Teen South Carolina who can't find her way out of a paper bag! Does education matter to her? No, her looks are her future! A future plastic surgeon smiles!

The New Discrimiation-Singlism

August 23rd 2007 22:23
Discrimination is alive and well today. The most discriminated aren't in a particular race, sex, or national origin, but rather in a chosen lifestyle. The lifestyle spans all races, sexes, and national origins!

If you are single, you are a victim of singlism. Say it isn't so!

There is social pressure and ridiculing because you have chosen the single life!

I'll go one farther than the above article. I know many married and coupled-up people that 'cheat' on their significant others because they are in a relationship trapped with the wrong person.

Cleavage And The Brain

August 22nd 2007 22:00
The outside of a woman may send the wrong message about her inside to the world. Image is everything. Then again, if it works for you use it!

Above The Law and The Koran

August 20th 2007 15:45
What would the price of a 400 year old, miniature, gold-lined Koran be worth. One of the richest Sultans in the world offered a hefty price of 4 million British pounds. It was intended as a gift for his much younger bride. But the Sultan has never paid his debt and has declared himself above the law in his country where the lawsuit has to take place!

Good Luck with that one!

Keep Smiling And Think Happy Thoughts

August 17th 2007 01:13
This goes to prove that money is wasted on airport security. They pay morons to make sure that passengers keep happy thoughts through out their agonizing airport experience. Apparently the new S & M methods at airport involve performing cavity searches on already stressed-out passengers.

Yes, behavior detection officers will be watching you. This seems to ease the pressure on profiling the terrorist who looks, acts and is obviously a terrorist! Look for those having a bad day or are getting screwed by the airline personnel instead

Voyeur Vision

August 14th 2007 22:15
There was a camera in the ladies' room at a movie theater that was showing The Simpsons Movie. That should be a lesson for those that find this dribble entertaining! That's another argument.

A woman discovered the camera and reported it to authorities. The police had no problem finding the perverted voyeuer. How? The man accidentally filmed himself setting up the camera! If you're stupid committing a crime then you will do the time!

The PT Barnum Factor

August 12th 2007 21:42
Are the entrepreneurs wise because they give the people what they want, or because they believe that there is fool born every minute? Money is money and if people are willing to pay for nonsense, then let them have their cake! Building a sand castle in the artic would be a brilliant idea based on the opposte end story.

It goes without saying that building an ice castle in the desert called Chillout will probably prove to be a stroke of genius! It really doesn't sound cheap and can set a desert dweller back a few bucks.

Ancient Chinese Medicine

August 5th 2007 14:43
For those who use Oriental philosophy and wisdom and medicines to cure what ails them, maybe you should reconsider. Apparently it is common to sell food in public toilets! After thousands of years, it finally occurs to the Chinese that maybe it's not a good idea! The title of the article has a great comedic value.

Note to self: If you are planning a trip to China for the Olympics, bring your own food, water and port-a-potty!!!
