I think if it hits like Friday and no deal has been done, it’s fair to start wondering why it hasn’t been done yet. I figured it would’ve been signed already.

Well he can't sign at 8:70 AM or PM.
Also, I just checked and last time (12 year contract signing) the articles came around noon, so we have another hour or so before people can panic again.

Yes, but as George Carlin pointed out: "Think about how dumb the average person is and then realize that half of the people are dumber than that"

Because that would force the average person to actually "think". That's work these days and people don't like to work. It's a lot easier to say "nu uh" or "bullshit".
how come no one ever talks about the median person
Because the median person doesn't have the capacity to understand statistical distributions.

Because stupid people are still legally allowed to breed enabling them to create the next generation of pants-on-head stupider bastard spawn to counter act them.

Idiocracy was a documentary, not a comedy.
I hate thinking about human reproduction. There's absolutely NO middle ground. It's Idiocracy or Hitler. There's just no good way to end the sentence, "Well, wait, let's think about this for a second..."

When I learned that a significant portion of human beings can not create a mental picture, have an inner dialogue, or do self reflection... It explained a lot.
I'm a dumb ass moron who is cynical and an jerk. But at least I can recognize that.

Not like current shows are much better.
Yeah, the lack of inner monolog and imagery was bonkers to me as well, but it actually explained a lot of the behaviors I would see. I'm actually a big fan of the NPC theory. I've met and talked to several people who leave me saying, "The lights are on, but no one is home. They are dead behind those eyes."

Why are yall talking like you may not be part of these below average or less intelligent or “NPC” groups?

Well, technically, an NPC wouldn't have the capacity to think about whether or not they are an NPC. The concept wouldn't mean anything to them. It would be like asking my GSD about current political affairs. She would have no capacity to understand such things. She would bork and want to play fetch or get a treat.Why are yall talking like you may not be part of these below average or less intelligent or “NPC” groups?

But you're right that some people who post here would likely be NPCs. I would tend to think that the people who come here and post with the same programmed thoughts fall into that category.
Dear lord, it really is summer, isn't it?

I started the rumor of Sid going to the AVS 3 years ago, I like moving on early rather than later.

I’m just saying if they found a way to accurately test the world’s IQ, I’m not so sure I’m above average or above the median. I feel as if my gambling record and decision making is not reflective of an intelligent person.
