zero attention span culture

***************

That has been carefully cultivated by the Left. It benefits them to have a populace that is not interested in, nor capable of, extended thought or critical thinking.

The length of a typical TV ad tells you how long the average person’s span of attention is. Believe me, they’ve researched it thoroughly. They also know people like to be entertained instead of informed.

Along those lines, I have really noticed in the past few years how inarticulate people have become. Just yesterday someone initiated a conversation with me this way:

"Do you have the ... the ... you know?"

And so many people now seem to "stutter": "I was just ... I was just ... the ... the ... the ... I was just ... you know? Well, whatever ... and ... I was just ..."

Something has happened to people's brains. We've always had fools and Valley Girls and whatnot but I swear lately people don't have two neurons to rub together.
