pffffft. c'mon, you need a live baby for when you put it in-- feet first, so you can see the look on his face.
oh how the mighty have fallen. this is honestly one of the worst things i've ever heard, and this is from a big hip-hop fan, and formerly a big lil wayne fan... http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=113529 ... tscenterfb
come on, playa, this is a real sports rap: seriously, though, why would they mix the theme down so low? and, why not drop a beat in there with it?
as an unrepentant white guy, just how high is lil wayne at any given point? like, is it a slight buzz just to loosen up, or does he exist on blunts and sizz-urp(spelling?)
i have long advocated an intelligence test before spawning licenses are issued. i think there should also be a basic test before you can vote, and we should bump taxes by thirty percent and then give an exemption to the tax bump to voters. only voters can apply for a license to spawn. if voting required an iq over 95, and at least a moderate understanding of ethics, economics, international politics (nothing complex, just what would actually happen if we tried to go to war wit dem foreigners from asia) and the policies of political parties that you're voting for, and parenting required all those things, as well as not being a narcissist or sociopath and having at least some understanding of education and childhood development theory... the birth rate would fucking plummet, but i probably wouldn't hate kids nearly as much. also? accidental pregnancy, abortion or adoption if you can't pass the test before the kid comes out, and the parent who sucked at birth control (argue that shit in family court or you both pay) gets 18 years of wages garnished to support public education, and public healthcare for children. and this is only a small part of why i don't ever expect to succeed in politics.
you would disenfranchise just under 50% of the population. because the median iq is set at 100. but i'm sure you knew that.
sort of, the reality is that there are a lot of people who's iq scores are above 145 (the standard deviation on iq scores is 15 with a mean score of 100, so in a normal distribution, scores would cap at 55 and 145 or at least scores above that range would be vastly more rare than they are in caucasian first world populations - but the reality isn't perfectly normal because of participant bias, we can't measure and normalise on freakishly stupid people who die from mental defect or who are just too stupid to participate. if anything, the cultural and contextual biases built into the system would disenfranchise non caucasians. the bias of the testing has been the basis of most racist eugenics advocacy over the years, and is pretty well demonstrated in research, but persists anyway because whitey plays fair. but my basic point was to disenfranchise stupidity. i'd rather ugly smart people than pretty fuckwits any day of the week. although obviously, i'd prefer a testing mechanism that didn't have the racial biases built in.
i've seen a lot of birth announcements lately on facebook, usually followed by the "stats" of their baby (time, date, weight, etc.). the one that gets me is the length. i can see how measuring the length is important for medical reasons, but it just seems weird to me to post something that's so irrelevant to anyone else. it's almost like they're posting the length of the fish they just caught. it makes me want to post borderline inappropriate shit in the comment section: "oh man, that sure is a nice long baby you got there. what's the girth on that baby? looks real nice and thick."
there's no limit on babies in the us, but if they're too small to fillet you can just toss them out with the guts of the bigger ones.
the problem is the implementation of eugenics is seen as equal to hitler. actually there's not one incident in human history where's we've implemented eugenics and it hasn't resulted in catastrophe. however, since all past eugenics policies have been based on illogical hatred these are the exact people you've removed from the electoral system. in response they take up guns against you and in order to enforce the law you fight back. the idiot horde can't ever win due to their foundation of stupidity. then, the bleeding heart liberals who are smart and sane, but far too sentimental switch over to the idiot side evening the score. they quickly gain control by making impossible to fulfill promises to every faction. they throw their hordes of idiots at you to soak up gun fire. they grow flowers, gardens, and build shrines to celebrate their idiots that have fallen in battle. they start decorating the shrines with religious symbology from all over the world to show how multicultural they are. big mistake. the idiots turn on each other while they keep attacking you in suicidal waves. you cannot defeat them. they are legion. you can't even thin them out. finally we are forced to redraw boundaries to keep the idiots separated from each other, but we're all stuck with some of them back at the starting point.
