Thought for the Day: I'm with Stupid

"You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant."
~ Harlan Ellison


“The two most common elements in the universe are Hydrogen and stupidity.”
~ Harlan Ellison


“I don't mind you thinking I'm stupid, but don't talk to me like I'm stupid”
~ Harlan Ellison


"The world is just filling up with more and more idiots! And the computer is giving them access to the world! They're spreading their stupidity! At least they were contained before. Now they're on the loose everywhere."


~ Harlan Ellison
