It was funny at first...

I was at the pub quiz the other week. One of the questions was: "What type of bird is roadrunner from the roadrunner cartoons?" Turns out he's a cuckoo. A lot of people had written down that he's an ostrich. That made me snort with laughter. A tiny ostrich on the wrong continent? And it makes me chuckle a bit still. An ostrich? Come on.
However, I began to realise that the very people who think that roadrunner is an ostrich will be sitting on juries, teaching our children, investing our money, electing MPs. Aye, it's not so funny when you suddenly realise that people are stupid and they're running the world! They police our streets, prosecute criminals, drive buses and deliver our mail! They even write blogs and some of them read them. We're at the mercy of idiots and fools! AAAAAHHHHHHH!

More tomorrow...
