Oops, Another Unplanned Teen Pregnancy
Today is apparently the day for talk about teen pregnancy.
This morning I learned Britney Spears’ 16-year-old sister is pregnant. For the record, this is information I would rather not have taking up space inside my mind, but the headline guiltily caught my eye today.
Anyway, two hours after learning this disturbing news, a Durham-based nonprofit dedicated to preventing teen pregnancy sent out a press release about an upcoming program on the topic of preventing teen and unwanted pregnancy.
The Adolescent Pregnancy Coalition of North Carolina is sponsoring the event, which will showcase an effective teen pregnancy prevention program. Details of the plan were not in the release, but they’ll be released at the Feb. 27 event.
In the meantime, if you’re curious about what might happen if stupid people keep reproducing, check out Mike Judge’s 2006 flick “Idiocracy.”

OMG IDIOCRACY is SUCH a funny movie! We watched and thought ~ OK, a chuckle every little bit, but this is too exaggerated and dumb to amount to much…
and then we realized, scarily, it may not be exaggerated at all… and suddenly it’s a great comedy and horror flick (due to it’s potential to become reality) all rolled into one!

I love Idiocracy! I’ve been walking around for days saying “But it’s got electrolytes!”
DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT ELECTROLYTES ARE?
“It’s the stuff plants crave!”
