The stupidity is blinding.

This... is horrifying.



You'll want to fast-forward to the 1:00 mark - everything up until then is Whoopi trying desperately and only mildly coherently to tie God and evolution together in a nice, neat, New Age-smelling package. Then comes the gold...

Whoopi: Is the world flat?
Fat Lady: (Confirming the question) Is the world flat?
Whoopi: Yes.
Fat Lady: I don't know.
Whoopi: What do you think?
Fat Lady: I never thought about it, Whoopi. Is the world flat? I never thought about it.
Barbara Walters: You never thought about whether the world was round...
Fat Lady: No, but I'll tell you what I have thought about - how to feed my child, how to take care of my family. "Is the world flat" has never entered into... that has not been important...
Crazy Blonde Woman: What will... you'll teach your son, Jeffrey, right?
Fat Lady: If my son, Jeffrey, asks if the world is flat, I guess I'll go and...

Okay - I'm done transcribing this. I think you get the idea. It's too painful to type.

By the way, I'm sure the large, stupid, planet-shaped being (HINT: If you're the shape of a planet, figuring out whether a planet is flat or round should be quite simple) has a name. I just don't care. I don't learn the proper names of my food, and I've eaten plenty of pasta smarter than her. More importantly, I don't watch "The View". I want nothing to do with "The View". This clip only proves that I was dead-on in my original assessment that watching five women babble on incoherently on a vapid morning talk show is not a healthy way to waste time.

If you'd like to read more "mysogeny", you might be interested in Rachel Lucas' thoughts on what would happen if mothers took over the world.

PS: I'm actually in a good mood. I'm just feeling spunky today.
