Beware! Dropping IQs

Is it just me, or are people getting more and more dumb? I have not had so many blank stares or "I don't know" answers as I have had these past few months. Is it fallout from our stupid government? Is it in the polluted water and air? Is it from the years of cable TV and video games? (Please don't answer "I don't know".)

Shopping in a random retail store is hopeless. It's rare to find an intelligent, helpful staff member to help you find whatever you are looking for. A 10-minute trip turns into 45 minutes. It's even more rare to find a person who can think critically in a situation they are not comfortable in.

I guess I shouldn't assume that these people I'm having contact with are actually dumb. They could be tired or confused or dazzled by the brightness of Jessica Simpson, but I can't seem to explain why I have to constantly explain myself. I will have to assume though, that whatever I talk about, that person will have no idea what I'm talking about.
