What would Jesus drive?!? What the hell kind of question is that? Well if it gets people to actually even consider the fuel efficiency or lack thereof of SUVs then I guess its not so bad to ask, "What would Jesus drive?". However its more important to ask, "What would Ram drive?!". However, we already know the answer to that one though, a blue 2002 Honda Civic.
Kids my age are smrt. S-M-R-T, smrt! No really this is scary. I can somewhat understand not being able to find individual middle-eastern countries, but not being able to find Iraq or Saudi Arabia is just perplexing to no end, seeing as how America was fighting a war there just a decade ago. As if that wasn't scary enough, 29% couldn't find the Pacific ocean and 11% couldn't even find America on the map! Yea buddy! I just find this really really hard to believe. Maybe its because I'm in a big, moneyed university in a rather liberal town but the people around me are pretty damn smart. I want to meet the people that participated in this survey. Statistically though its rather hard to find a good cross-section of the general population and nothing on the actual survey setup is discussed so potentially they could have interviewed a segment of the population that biased the results. Even though, how could one not find the Pacific ocean or America on a world map is beyond me. Far beyond me. It sort of hurts in that "holy shit I can't believe it" sort of way, but I still want to giggle.
Lately on campus as I walk from lab to class to lab to work to library or some combination of those I've found myself reading signs posted by student organizations on kiosks, walls and such. Usually I'm walking by too fast to actually read the real name of the organization or any content on the sign, but I just catch the acronyms in their big bold lettered fonts. So I decided I'm just going to make up my own names for the organization's whose acronyms I see. Here are the first ten in a Top Secret order:
1. Pre-PAS - Pre-Programmed Androgynous Stableboys
2. APSA - Agoraphobic Pot Smokers in Austin (word up Cassie)
3. MAHPO - Mothers Against Humping Penguins Outside
4. AGDI - Accounting Gurus Distributing Inchworms
5. KSFC - Kentucky Stir Fried Chicken
6. ILASSA - Introverted Llamas Against Safe Sex in Argentina
7. EMS - Elephants Mouthing Slurs
8. SAHPA - Stupendous Aggregation of Horny Programmers in Austin
9. NSBL - Naked Student's Bowling League or Naked Students Belching Loudly
10. UTNSA - Unusual Transvestites Noticing Student Activities
