Polar Bears aren't really like the Coca-Cola Bears

You may have already seen this, but I had to add my two cents to it. A woman at the Berlin Zoo in Germany decided to ignore the wall around the Polar Bear enclosure. Then the bears did what bears do. They protected their territory by attacking the intruder. You see, the cute cuddly bears we see in the commercials at Christmas aren't real. (In case you missed that) Well apparently the chick in Germany did miss that fact. If you scroll through the pictures there is one of her treading water and looking quite pleased with herself. I am guessing she quit being pleased with herself when the bears attacked. Polar Bear Attack at Zoo
That's all for today's episode of News from the World of Stupid.

That was an interesting piece. There are days when I definitely think that what happened in Idiocracy really could come true. But it's not the fault of commercials that the younger generation is getting dumber. I fault parents who fail to teach their children to think for themselves and how to problem solve much less research more than reading Wikipedia. I blame the school system. (not teachers or at least most of them) but the system and the man. I blame the government. There are so many factors. And quite frankly it all starts with the break down of the family. Parents who don't spend time with or teach their children to even have a work ethic much less anything else. I am so glad I won't be around in 70 years. I dare not even have nightmares about the state of America led by the children of today who will of course still be paying for that riddiculous bail out we just passed.

Should have been a Darwin award issued that day. She should have paid the ultimate price for her stupidity.
