Well, if you think about it a little while you might grasp the logical error you made in your question. Doubtful, though. Found any more uses for baby wipes?

I thought at one point you were receptive to a bit of humor. Perhaps I was mistaken. Now, I'm just a dumb non-college educated bumpkin, but I'll try to explain this so even a college graduate can understand it: In KY, your IQ (whatever it is) was higher than the average hill-billy, ergo when you were there, your contribution to the list of scores raised the overall average IQ score. In UT, the average IQ is higher than yours, ergo, your contribution to the list of scores lowers the overall average IQ. To sum it up: You raise the (low) average IQ of KY when you are there. You lower the (higher) average IQ of UT when you are there. When you transitioned from KY to UT, you lowered the average IQ of both locales with one move. I can try to explain it s-l-o-w-e-r, if needed... You might have to explain it in S--P--E--C--I--A--L E--N--G--L--I--S--H. (For the PhD challenged) |

Your humor reflects on the intelligence of someone that would need baby wipes to get oil out of his carpet, which, BTW, makes you sound more like a hillbilly than anyone I've recently met! Next time, stick to jokes that are actually humorous.

However, I did not expect it to fit so perfectly that it would sail right over your head... Twice... Do you hear slight whizzing noises often? The real thing is simply that your "joke" wasn't funny. If you think it was, well that says more about you than me. Is this "Republican" humor? Making stereotypes about whole states being "hillbilly"? Making sexual innuendoes by labeling me a "drama-queen"? Are you a debate-queen then? Sorry, just had to ask ;-) |
