Make Stupidity History (15/1/06)

Here we are in the 21st century. Towards the end of the 20th century, rapid advances in technology allowed us to experience a world of instant communication, and the amount of gadgetry we amass in order to make our lives more convenient and more entertaining would shock the great inventors from bygone ages. Sadly, this over-reliance on electronics has rendered many members of the human race unable to do the simplest things, like read and write. I freely admit to having a slight reading problem, but I can still comprehend the basics.

What is it about people who can't follow elementary instructions, whether represented graphically or in short, succinct phrases? No smoking means just that. You're not meant to drive on the wrong side of the road, and that's what those white dashes signify. You're only supposed to park in one parking bay at a time, and so on.
Come on, chaps. Make a stand against this drop in standards, unless you're not imbeciles and are simply ill-mannered!

CURRENTLY LISTENING TO: Mark Radcliffe's show from Wednesday (featuring Julian Cope).
