How many times have you said (or thought), "I'm surrounded by idiots"?

You're right.

(Heretofore, clearly NONE of this info refers to you or me...hehehehe!)

A new study confirms, people really ARE getting dumber. The average IQ in first-world countries has dropped about 1.23 points per decade. That means over the last century, we've lost 14.1 IQ points as a race.

The reason for this drop in smarts?

Researchers say it's because "Women of higher intelligence are having fewer children, meaning women of lower intelligence are driving population growth."

Um...I dunno why, but I feel like I have to yell "GIRL POWER" right now.

Probably just got dumber.
