<p>I was in my local book purveyor's the other day and I overheard a conversation as I was looking at the art books.&nbsp; There was a couple the next aisle over talking, and the actual conversation went like this (the names have been changed to protect the moronic):</p><p>Jane:&nbsp; Hey Tyrone here are true crime books.&nbsp; You would like these, why not read one?</p><p>Tyrone (indignant):&nbsp; Jane, I passed my reading SOL.&nbsp; I an't got to read no more if I don't wanna.&nbsp; I ain't gonna read no book less I have to.</p><p><em>There's a pregnant pause from Jane as she mulls this bit of data over</em>...</p><p>Jane:&nbsp; And <em>that</em>, Tyrone&nbsp;is why you are a fucking idiot.</p><p>This was hiliarious and made my day.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Note for our Non US folks:&nbsp; SOL stand for standards of learning, and tyrone happened to pass his in reading, though I suspect he may have had trouble with grammar...</p>

Read all about it :), and situation in UK isn't much better, in many aspects it is worse.
