Either Or

While stewing about something that happened at my son's school, I asked myself, as I frequently do, are these people stupid or mean? Or maybe both? I often ask myself the same sorts of questions about Republicans, religious fundamentalists of all stripes, and the NRA.

For some reason, this whole train of thought leads me to my all-time favourite Melrose Place quote, when Dr. Peter Burns asks in exasperation, "Do you think I'm insane AND stupid?"

Which further puts me in mind of my favourite made-up book title, "I'm OK, You're an Ignorant Idiot." I just tried googling this to get the citation right, but let me tell you, googling on the words "ignorant idiot" gets you "about 2,830,000 pages" and as much as I'd love to scroll these endless links to people overflowing with venom and vitriol, I don't have the time right now.
