New Study Reveals Most Children Unrepentant Sociopaths

From the Onion, no less.
Imagine that: teaching depravity through satire!

“Just look at the way most adults act,” Singh added.
I think Dr. Singh is a sociopath.
I recently went to see the movie: “Did you hear about the Morgans?” and was shocked to see that depravity can even be taught through a romantic comedy. At the beginning of the movie, it is revealed that the male protagonist, Paul Morgan, cheated on his wife, and it is later revealed that she had cheated on him too, and they yell at each other for about half of the movie. Shockingly, the movie received mostly bad reviews. My favorite was, “Grant has never been less charming and Parker never less fashionable or more grating than they are as Paul and Meryl Morgan…” (http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/la-et-morgans18-2009dec18,0,3618460.story). I guess most women don’t really want to believe that men are self-seeking jerks (like women are). Good thing there are immortal angelic vampires running around out there!
