From the SCA Chirurgeon's list:

One of our esteemed colleagues (a teacher by trade) has proposed the Potato-Head Theory of Confounded Natural Selection:

"Ever since the well-meaning do-gooders interfered with the design of the Mr. Potato Head toy, those children formerly too stupid to avoid choking on the pieces have survived to project their genes into future generations."

I think it's more of an IQ test for the parents than the kids. Kids aren't *supposed* to know better, that's what grown-ups are supposed to do.

I grant we seem to be encouraging not just the stupid to breed but those with brains to use them as little as possible. Sigh.
