Let no country lay claim to idiocy

My heart brims with that warm feeling whenever I see reiterated, such universal concepts such as motherhood, apple pie, sex and idiocy.

The average HK commuter on the MTR is basically an idiot. Very much like Singapore, no one wants to get out to let others disembark; no one moves into the carriage; and everyone wants to pile in before the ones that need to get out get out.

In an important business meeting - by which mean totally unimportant - you have on the next seat a cretin who uses his cellphone for the entire two hours. Except he apparently does not realize he can set his keys to not beep (loudly) every time one's pressed. Or he doesn't care. I was so disappointed that I did not pack my trusty ball-peen hammer. When will they legislate the right to pulverize electronics that destroy public peace?

But of course, legislators, senators, parliamentarians are all themselves sleeping at the wheel. Some things are universal. If you do not believe me, just watch the people on Fashion TV. Its main source of revenue seems to be from adverts for FXPro. Ah, boundless idiocy.
