Any of you see "Idiocracy"?

It was hard to watch, and left a deep impression.Watching such
masterpieces as the recent "Carl's Jr."adverts for the Philly Steak
Sandwich, where all dialog is reduced to little more than a series
of grunts, or other popular entertainments such as "Jackass---the
unstoppable marketing franchise based on kicking various random
hyperstupid people in the balls repeatedly"---I realized it's not
gonna take 500 years to get to where Mike Judge was going.
Incredibly harsh, and unfortunately apt, satire.
"Someone please prove to me that students are NOT getting
more and more ignorant with each generation. George must
be doing a pretty high rpm in his grave.
Steven -- lover of the book...and the Bowie song cycle."
