This is the official response. You'd best start believing in Idiocracy, you're in one.
Can I at least get some electrolytes please.
Welcome to Costco, I love you!
It's what plants crave!
Why do we allow these morons to make a mockery of society?
Shit.
I know shit's bad right now...
When I first saw Idiocracy when it was perhaps a year or three old, I thought it was stupid. I loved the premise but thought the movie was stupid and too exaggerated. That it would be funnier if it were less over the top.
I admit that I was wrong about it being exaggerated. But I was right that it would be funnier otherwise because it wouldn't have been so prescient.
I read that they got the audience to laugh at the ass movie without prompting them.
We're fucked.
You don’t think they were actually laughing for 90 minutes straight, do you?
If they'd needed 90 minutes they might've been able to get it, but I think they probably stopped filming after a few minutes because that's all they needed for the movie.
Hey, the President in the movie recognized that there was someone smarter than him and got him to help solve a major problem. That's actually better than Trump did.
They're actually mistaking Adam Kinzinger and Rudy G?
