"Yeah, about the test. The test will measure whether you are an informed, engaged, and productive citizen of the world, and it will take place in schools and bars and hospitals and dorm rooms and in places of worship. You will be tested on first dates, in job interviews, while watching football, and while scrolling through your Twitter feed. The test will judge your ability to think about things other than celebrity marriages, whether you'll be easily persuaded by empty political rhetoric, and whether you'll be able to place your life and your community in a broader context. The test will last your entire life and it will be comprised of the millions of decisions that, when taken together, make your life yours. And everything, EVERYTHING, will be on it."

PS - I'm not posting this in a "being an arrogant jerk at others' expense" type of way. Interpret my intentions in a "please don't let this happen to you or your children" type of way.
This is hilarious. Sad.

ReplyDeleteby the way, kfc is not exactly from kentucky, the colonel was from indiana and the first KFC was in salt lake. Technically he did develop the idea in kentucky, selling chicken, but it wasn't until that restaurant went under and he took to the road to market the idea that it became KFC. I suppose it's technically a question of semantics. Take that you australian snobs.
