One thing that irritates me time and again is when someone tells me they saw something “on the Internet”. It’s an insult to humanity to have such a low degree of literacy.
In order to begin to understand how absurd such a statement is, consider how you would feel if someone talked to you about something, and if you asked them to state the source of their information, then they told you “paper” … or “a piece of paper” … or anything like that.
I get it: Airheads exist. One of my high school history teachers was sort of hot, and also an airhead. She actually once divulged to the class that she had appeared on the TV program titled “The Dating Game”. I also recall that she mentioned my name in class every now and then — for example when she drew attention to me by comparing me to “Roundheads” (i.e. that I had a round head) — it actually never occurred to me back then to consider whether she might have had the hots for me! 😛
But I digress … .
When airheads say things like “on the Internet”, their completely lacking literacy skills scream out throughout the rooms wherever they are allowed to make such statements. Rather than put them up in front of a firing line, I suggest we should simply deny their apparent existence altogether. Such imbecilic statements are no more passable than the ASS their brains apparently feed on. Their sloppy diets cannot possibly nourish any signs of significant intelligence whatsoever. They might as well be 100% fake.
