People who don't know that water expands when it freezes, that the cube of 14 is 2744, or that the capital of Kazakhstan is Alma-ata are ignorant.
And people who know all three (and mention it) are very, very dull indeed.

But backward. So it doesn't entirely qualify as such.

So, basically, you're saying that anything bad is a good idea as long as it only applies to other people?
You realize, of course, that no arguement you make from this point forward can be taken seriously (if they were in the first place).

This implies that you were actually Ignorant enough to take such a clearly ludicrous statement as "we should expand the death penalty to include the ignorant" seriously.
Line on the left, one cross each.
Obvioulsy, for folks like you, I should wear the moose antlers when I'm being ludicrous -- whups -- *puts antlers on* -- when I'm being ludicrous, and take them off when I'm not. *takes antlers off*
Nature, when we let her, takes care of many of the Ignorant for us. Like those folks who qualify for Darwin awards. I see no reason to help Nature along. However, I see no reason to hinder Her, either.

Yes. It so side splittingly funny that there's no way it can be anything other than a joke. And a genius joke at that! Said by a genius! Which is you!
Ha ha ha. And so forth.

But, when it's you talking, how do I tell the difference between the clearly ludicrous statements that you're not serious about, and the clearly ludicrous statements that you are serious about?
