"If you don't like your job, you don't strike, you just go in there every day and do it really half-assed. That's the American way." -- Homer Simpson

Finally, I can feel patriotic about my slacker mentality.

"If you don't like your job, you don't strike, you just go in there every day and do it really half-assed. That's the American way." -- Homer Simpson
oh, we great nations have so much in common.
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

If only China would adopt this mindset, all the world powers could be united in mediocrity.  Take that, Putin!
