Perversions of Mind

I'm sure you've seen those newspaper articles that clearly show how disgusting our society has become. They're the ones about people found in drainage ditches, or in some river chopped up into itty bitty peices with wood chippers. Well for such mindless drones as we, these are quite interesting. You will also run across articles that redefine stupid, there that word again, stupid, why does it crop up so much?
