"I went out on Friday night with some guys and we went through like 2 fun-packs of Elmers, and then Saturday night, like 3 of them. It was crazy. You mix some gatorade with it, you can't even smell it." So, what if I brought this story to the typical workplace Monday morning conversation? For some reason, it's socially acceptable to talk about how trashed you got over the weekend, including specifics on what you drank and how much of it. But, if I were to bring up how I stopped by the craft store on Friday night in order to get my glue on, people would think I had a problem, and rightly so. But, if it's causing the same relative effect, cognitive drowning, then why is this so different?

I don't think we will ever, as a country, really like any elected President ever again. There's too much information out there now. The media covers every word they've ever said, and it's impossible for them to not have said hundreds of stupid things over the course of their life. And it all it takes is one for the populace to shun them. So, because of this, I will use this forum to occasionally remind us why all of our former Presidents sucked. It's not that we're entering a new age of folly. It's that we're finally able to witness the depravity of all men from up close.
