    Hmm, maybe voting should be weighted according to your exam qualifications?

    No GCSEs = 0.01 of a vote
    GCSEs only = 0.1 of a vote
    A levels = 0.3 of a vote
    BA or equivalent = 0.5 of a vote
    MA or equivalent = 0.75 of a vote
    PhD or equivalent = 1 vote

      Neither. Ever thought that maybe it's not them, maybe it's you?

      Could it be that you're just too stupid to know what the hell they're talking about?

      Just sayin', like.

      The vegetarian option.

        No, you see the problem with that is twofold;
        1. The edjumacayshun system can be too easily manipulated by politicians to produce the electoral results they want
        2. That means giving cockhead numpty HR managers with MBAs 50% more influence than a brainy BSc who has some training in critical thinking and logic.

        Better to introduce a basic IQ test. Over 110; you can, and should vote.
        Less than 110; crawl back under your shell and accept that smart people know what's good for you.

          Idiocy and Intelligence do not particularly correlate.

            As I've got older I find myself getting increasingly tolerant but more accurate in my assessment of people.

              Lefties who allow their good intentions to kick their reasoning abilities out of the window.

              Actually that's probably a good definition of a lefty.

                I just find other people annoying.

                You're all shades of annoying, some tolerable, others I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire.
