My Faith in Humanity is Dashed Once More

Posted by Timmy - September 10th, 2010

I mean - everyone knows that the average human is just dumb as sin.

You see the statistics (eg: only 57% of Americans know that the earth revolves around the sun, or whatever it is) and you hear about crackpot theories that are alleged (Secret codes in the Bible/Qur'an/Phonebook).

But you don't really acknowledge how incredibly dim the human race is until you run smack into it.

And the internet allows me to smack into the idiocy that runs rampant within the human species on a more regular basis than I would like.

Take this Comments Section from a relatively straightforward article about a newly discovered dinosaur:

My faith in humanity has been dead for years. Welcome to the club, I guess.

Timmy 2010-09-10 18:12:22

It is cold and dark in here.

Malachy 2010-09-10 18:50:05

clearly you don't have enough faith like Katherine does!

Timmy 2010-09-10 18:50:05

Yes - faith is clearly the key ingredient to intelligence...

nicolamalfi 2010-09-10 19:14:42

That's why I went to philosophy. Humans, whether our hatred of each other will destroy each other, or something will put us down before we have the chance.

Timmy 2010-09-10 19:14:42

I'm assuming that birds will evolve back into dinosaurs in the next few weeks and devour us all.

thenewbies 2010-09-10 19:52:57

What, like a funny-talking redneck hasn't made you lose faith in humanity already?

Timmy 2010-09-10 19:52:57

I try to keep my encounters with rednecks to a minimum.

This whole Florida Qur'an burning has made that difficult though.

blue-ice-cube 2010-09-10 22:28:36

i REALLY REALLY hate people, there all a bunch of stupid fucks, except for you, your pretty cool.

Timmy 2010-09-10 22:28:36

Yeah - Newgrounds seems to have a number of swell folks like yourself.

The rest of the internet though...I dunno about that place, man.

Sinitech 2010-09-11 00:17:51

I noticed that two of the three comments on that page are by women. Just an observation.

The one in the middle is, somehow, the least stupid.

But that's like saying one turd smells less like shit than another.

Timmy 2010-09-11 00:17:51

I was thinking about making a sexist joke about how women shouldn't be allowed on the internet, but that angle is just so played out.

FireWOLF109 2010-09-11 00:25:58

my faith in humanity is declining rapidly... sometimes i litterally have to smack some sense into them by eigher smacking them or punching them... but still they dont learn

Timmy 2010-09-11 00:25:58

Physical violence is usually the best way to increase someone's intelligence.

cast 2010-09-11 02:58:51

NO COMMENT.

Timmy 2010-09-11 02:58:51

but you...just...

cast 2010-09-11 02:59:13

WOOPS GUESS I DID LEAVE ONE. LOL

Timmy 2010-09-11 02:59:13

Oh ok

Dean 2010-09-11 07:41:59

"I bet his ancestors back then also had big ears so they could hear the Dinosaurs coming."

lol

Timmy 2010-09-11 07:41:59

I hate stupid people so MUCH D:<

Ptero 2010-09-11 13:15:51

Newgrounds doesn't exist. It's all an illusion made by God to test our faith. Check Corinthians 94:13.

Timmy 2010-09-11 13:15:51

Holy shit, the unknown 94th Chapter of Corinthians.

Sinitech 2010-09-11 14:50:02

Is it really a joke at this point?

Timmy 2010-09-11 14:50:02

I think an asteroid needs to come along and finally put a punchline on this sick mess.

Gian 2010-09-14 19:14:55

I usually get deeply depressed when I think too much about humanity. Not sane, but man I'm glad I'm not stupid enough to be the cause of somebody's depression haha.

Timmy 2010-09-14 19:14:55

At some point, you just have to walk away from it all.

CoCo 2010-09-14 22:54:28

I lol'd. But it's okay, right?

Timmy 2010-09-14 22:54:28

S'ok.

ian4678 2010-09-17 18:32:50

Thankfully at High school people never seem to discuss politics and stuff like this. But I know I'll have to deal with idiots like that when I get a job.
