For some reason I remember an old Mad Magazine bit:
BELIEVE IT OR NOT: Nelson J Dukakis, during his campaign to become president, didn't once eat pizza, lutefisk, or soul food in order to pander to various voter groups. Instead, he chose to make rational arguments to appeal to their intelligence.
Nelson J Dukakis didn't get ONE SINGLE VOTE!
Four years of college? I don't remember a thing. Old comics I read when I was 12? I can recall them in detail. Stupid brain.
ETA: What I meant to say - Reality: now 100% more bizarre than parodies of it.
