Seriously. They banned fractions and decimals because...I have no idea why they did it, but damn it, my brain hurts. snopes.com/lost/fraction.asp |

Like an abused child, Mississippi should be placed in the care of a smarter state.

Wait, so how are kids gonna learn to count money.. not a joke.. seriously.. My guess is they'll just guess or round or something. Seriously, this story gave me a headache when I found it, then it made me sad, then angry, then hungry, then tired, then hungry again. |

I missed most of the bulk due to the Combos MAN ZONE Ad.
That said the fact that they mentioned no numbers when counting the vote. and actually claiming that since the church doesn't use fractions neither should they.
Dear snorking god.....People wonder why The rest of the world thinks that America is an idiotic nation and the South is its most idiotic portion. This kind of rampant government sponsered stupidity is what makes those stereotypes a reality.
Edit: That said....did anyone click the link? It's as real as Ashley's Cement titties and Hornswaggle's Paternity.

OK, I saw the link at the bottom where they basically pulled an Eddie Guererro and yelled "I lIIIIIIIIED" in my face, so my bad for buying it. The sad thing is,having raed enough stupid governmental laws (like whale fisning being illegal in Ohio, a law that was passed by the state legislature) I took it as very plausible.
Sorry bout that guys, and no offense meant to any Mississippians (especiallly my relatives, who, sadly, wouldn't get it).

This just in: due to the conflicting status of the letter "y" as a vowel or consonant, the United States of America has chosen to remove the letter from the alphabet. An English-speaking countr that does not compl shall be subject to militar action with nuclear weaponr.
