Stupidity Documentary
I have just finished watching a fantastic movie and have to tell people. Chances are if you are not living in Canada, you probably would not have heard of this movie, and chances are you will never have the opportunity to watch it.

"Stupidity" directed by Albert Nerenberg has got to be one of the most interesting, amusing and eye opening documentary that I have seen in a bit. It is sort of like a Michael Moore film without the hatred and biased view. Basic idea of Stupidity: the world is growing stupidier by the moment, the gov't breeds stupidity as a form of social control, we actually put high regard and coolness on stupidity and shun genius (smart people arent attractive, whereas stupid people in movies are attractive and desirable). The film makers use quotes from psychologists and theories of people that have written books on the subject of stupidity and how we can make our lives better if we get stupid. One such author is T.O. Strong (who just happens to be one third of the genius musicians who are The Arrogant Worms) with the book "Get Stupid".
In "Get Stupid" you will actually discover the fabulous 7 step program to increase your stupidity and make your life easier. Here are the seven steps:
The Seven Steps to Bliss!
1: Stop thinking! — empty your brain!
2: Shift the Blame! — blame others!
3: Lose touch with your feelings! — delete your emotions!
4: Build Walls! — keep out everything but you!
5: Avoid Challenges! — never fail by never trying to succeed!
6: Believe in Yourself! — love you and only you!
7: Deny, Deny, Deny! — your truth is the only truth!
And, as T.O. Strong will say in the documentary "the best thing about achieving absolute stupidity is that you will never really know when you have acquired stupidity. To purchase this book go to "http://www.getstupid.biz/index.html"
All I can say is that this documentary is just plain and simple common sense where you have to listen to what they are saying, listen to the quotes from the 'experts' and look at the evidence and you will actually find yourself nodding and agreeing with them. It is quite the documentary, and I think I have said enough except, if you can find it, watch it.
