Oh to be Unencumbered by Intellect or Imagination.
These people seem really contented with their lot.
I won't embarrass anyone by singling them out or mentioning names but Skizo, for example, seems thoroughly happy with his lot as king of the counting 'tards because he's blissfully devoid of any aspirations pertaining to adroit conversational exchanges.
Maybe this translates :earl:
I think we can all agree that to be a successful, intelligent, imaginative individual would be ideal -- but perhaps, failing that, being stupid and fulfilling what little potential you have would make a person happier than being an intelligent under-achiever.
I am undecided as to whether it would.

I think I'd rather be The than be Skizo.
Edit: maybe I've taken it too far, there, by citing Dave as an example :dabs:
Re: Oh to be Unencumbered by Intellect or Imagination.
What if The lived in Canaidia and Skizo lived in Merthyr Tydfil (sp) :blink:

Yeah ... still Dave. That was a bad example.
Merthyr. No-one ever goes to Merthyr :pinch:
That's where we send all the 'tards and mentals so they don't fuck up the gene pool.

You're pretty infuriating, because you do have the capability to post intelligent and witty stuff, but most of the time you deliberately act like a cretin out of choice. :dabs:
NB. Post any reply you want to make before reading the following spoiler.
