Schott's Almanac will get you caught up with most of the knowledge in the world.
A Brief History of Economic Genius will teach the history of economics in a humorous and easy way.
The Intellectual Devotional is one page lessons on topics in history, science, philosophy, music, and religion. This book has led to me hyper-wikipediaing 500 different topics.

Speaking of wikipedia, did you hear that a "a tenured professor of theology" at a private university in the eastern United States" who claimed to teach both undergraduate and graduate theology, and also claimed a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies (B.A.), Master of Arts in Religion (M.A.R.), Doctorate of Philosophy in Theology (Ph.D.), Doctorate in Canon Law (JCD).'

...and then, not being content with being an administrator on Wikipedia, the dumbass accepted a job offer from Wikia, where they realized that he was a lying sack of shit.

The "professor" ended up to be a 24-year old college dropout from Kentucky.

And hen he said he did it because he was concerned that he would get stalked, and so he invented this backstory to throw people off. Odd he didn't say he was a plumber from Des Moines.

It just adds to the yokel patheticness of pretending to be a hotshot player in academia.

I am pretty sure you are joking, but it does get grading after a while, does it not?


I mean, I doubt Oklahomans or Kentuckians are really that much dumber than people on the coasts, at least on average.

Everybody is pretty stupid in their own way. If you can't find a bunch of idiots within 100 yards of where you are sitting, you aren't trying hard enough. There might even be one using your chair as we speak.

I guess you are a glass half empty guy.

You know, some people see the glass half empty, some see it half full, but I just wonder who is drinking my beer.


Also, I don't have a chair.  I have a couch and a bed.  I think we found idiot number 1.

Actually, I just burned my chair last Friday when I was drunk and having a fire during a fuck you Friday apartment kegger.  I found it outside the dumpster, so no big loss.

I do have some folding chairs, but I certainly don't use them.

Edit:  I just realized that I am too classy to not sit on cheap ass chairs at a desk/ they generally just suck anyways, but I am classy enough to burn a chair and also to take furniture from the trash.  Maybe Oklahomans really are different.

oooh, a fuck-you-Friday drinking fest? That would be hella awesome, but I'm on call.

I guess I should be grateful that I'm on call, and savor it like a sweet memory. Since I got Written Up for taking a medevac, I only do like 4 EMS shifts a month now. It's pathetic. :(
