I first read: "Eight anti-war protesters have superglued themselves to the entrances of a weapons factory today in opposition to the Iraq conflict on its fifth anniversary."
Then I looked for the location. Yep: Great Britain. It's almost too easy to mock these people.

As I said, UK online newspapers/magazines have some shockingly-blunt survey reports.
But that really isn't describing the phenomenon correctly. What these surveys really do is perpetuate some of the worst negative stereotypes.
And here is the latest in that line:There's a strong hint that men just like cheap bimbos.

If you spend a great deal of time perusing Hot Air (like I do), you may have noticed that the bloggers there like to post some topics whose main point is, "Man, people are stupid!" It can be weird laws, ridiculous actions, shockingly-blunt survey results...
...the common thread? They are almost all stories from Great Britain.
So here's more evidence that British society should go the way of the dodo bird very soon.
Honestly, I don't mean to impugn all Britons everywhere, but I'm thinking the only reason 80% of 'em even get a chance to pass on their genes is because it's a target-rich environment.
I'd like to think differently, but the anecdotal evidence is hard to refute. The only possible defense I can think of is that Great Britain has developed the tabloid model of news reporting to the highest possible degree, and the inevitable conclusion is News for the Lowest Common Denominator. Which is pretty much the name of this new category. I'll keep pointing out when there are UK Stupidity articles until I get bored of posting under this topic and stop.
