So, the other day on a local radio show where two guys rant about everything, one guys says. “This year so far there have been over 250 death from people taking selfies.” The other guys says, “Oh, that’s just natural selection, nature culling the idiots”

" The nice thing about old age is that "stupid" becomes "dementia."
