I Love Google!
A co-worker was telling me of a movie, but could not remember the lead actor’s name nor the movie title. It did sound interesting enough that I wanted to see it with a beer or two in me. The premise of the movie went something like this:
The protagonist is imprisoned for a crime and frozen for 1,000 years. During that time all of the smart people decided to stop having kids because of the expense, hassle or whatever. However, the idiots of the world kept having kids “like rabbits.” When the protagonist wakes up from his incarceration, his formerly average intelligence is now nearly superhuman as compared to the rest of the world.
He was unable to find the movie in his head or on IMDB (no actor and no title makes it rough.) I turned to Google and entered, “movie future people get dumber” and the first link was this one. Idiocracy was the name of the movie.
It’s for this reason that I love Google. It makes finding rare, obscure and seemingly irrelevant facts easy to find.
Thank you, Google!
