And the world is constantly working on new and better idiots.
I once jokingly said in mixed company that there should be a test required before a couple could have children. One young woman of uncertain intelligence looked me dead in eye and with great venom spat, "The only people who could possibly think that was okay are people who are sure they would pass."
I looked at her in silence for a long time as those around us agreed or disagreed. We held eye contact for a long time. It never occurred to her what she had just implied.
