It Just Might Happen

(Language warning.) This is the first three minutes of Idiocracy, a movie about a normal guy who ends up in the future and automatically becomes the "smartest man in the world" - simply because the rest of society had been dumbed down. (The president of the United States is a former ultimate fighting champion, and the House of Representatives has been renamed The House of Representin'. Oh yeah, the #1 television show is a program that constantly shows men being hit in the crotch.) Anyway, the first three minutes shows how it could happen. Ever since I first saw it, I can't get it out of my mind. It's supposed to be a comedy, but most of my friends who have seen it believe it's not that far fetched. Interestingly, a study came out in London last week saying it will happen.
