apocalypsosToday's bits of wisdom from Captain Asshat included ...
... that Britney Spears got married because she is pregnant and wants to make it "official" so she won't get in so much trouble when it comes out in the tabloids in a month.
... that Madonna was the first person ever to discover that any publicity is good publicity and make use of it with the media. (I argued this with him for a good ten minutes before I blurted out about being a journalism major for three years and that I knew what the hell I was talking about. He finally begged off, but he made it sound like he was placating me. Moron.)
... that Madonna studies the Kabbalah (true), which is a secret society you can't find anything out about (load of crap) that's trying to take over the planet (frighteningly large pile of bullshit). Yes, the Kabbalists are taking over the planet, with yoga and red string bracelets! Mwahahaha! Those diabolical bastards!
... that he knew where Bangladesh was before I did (a co-worker was looking for it on a map) because he "has an American history degree." First off, if he's got a degree like that, what the hell's he doing as a temp at DHL? And secondly, being an American history major doesn't mean your smart-alecky ass can find Bangladesh on a map. (Not only that, but when I said I knew where it was -- I was looking for it right by India -- he hung back and waited for some time limit in his head to go off before he yelled, "I know where it is!", pointed it out, then said, "Yeah, who's the college student now?" Jesus, grow up.
... that, in an addendum to that last bit of wisdom, I was wrong when I said that Myanmar was in Southeast Asia. Myanmar doesn't actually exist. (Tell that to the people who live in the magical land of non-existence also known as Burma.)
*sighs*
Yay, though I walk through the valley of morons, I will fear no asshats, because it's only a matter of time before they drop heavy objects on their heads and get nominated for Darwin Awards. :)
