Let’s take a quiz.
It’s short.
But before the quiz…
Imagine the following:
- You have a mentally handicapped sister.
- She’s not severely retarded but she is ‘slow’.
- This sister lives with your mother
- This sister works at a sheltered workshop
Good so far?
Okay.
Now imagine that:
- You are not mentally handicapped.
- You are not physically handicapped.
- You do not work.
- Your mother has access to your handicapped sister’s money.
This is a hypothetical situation.*
Now here’s the quiz:
- Your mother offers to give you money from your sister’s account which you are free to use to buy such essentials as beer, tattoos and cigarettes. Do you take the money? (Yes or No)
- Your sister (who is, remember, handicapped…) is wearing the sames clothes she wore in 1982 because she is not allowed to spend money from her account. Do you take her money now? (Yes or No)
- When your mother dies, your aunt tells you that you can’t have any more of your handicapped sister’s money. Is your aunt ripping you off? (Yes or No)
- BONUS QUESTION: Is it proper to call your aunt whatever foul names pop into your mind? (Yes or No)
- Since your sister is no longer giving you her money, are you justified in refusing to drive her to her job at the sheltered workshop? (Yes or No)
QUIZ SCORING:
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions,
…you are despicable.
If you answered “Yes” to ALL of these questions,
…may God have mercy on your soul.
(* The above scenario is fictional and any similarities to actual people is purely coincidental…except in the one specific case of people who I actually know to exist. I posted this quiz to give perspective to anyone who thinks that your uncle is the most evil person on Earth because he watches Fox News.)

Sounds like someone is a piece of work. Hope this individual isn’t related to you. :/
Logic and laughter are both in short supply these days. The ability to use logic and laughter to make a point is priceless. Keep up the good work!
