Please make it stop! PLEASE!!!

Do you ever read something so embarrassingly stupid that it leaves you with the urge to stick rusty needles in your eyes to try and make it easier to bear? Something so utterly fucking stupid that it leads you to wonder whether the writer has any brain cells at all?

Take a look at this, not the story, it's the Mail's usual banal load of crap, "ooh look people, there was some weather today, bet you hadn't realised had you?", no take a look at the comments. Look at them, try to digest what they are saying in detail. In particular look at this comment which sums up so many Mail readers.

This is the "dry, hot, barbecue summer" that has been forecast, perhaps? I do have to laugh every time they trot out this nonsense. Nobody really has a clue what the weather will hold more than a day or two in advance, so why they bother just defeats me. And they think they can predict and control climate change? People must be uber-gullible if they swallow this claptrap.

In just one quick and easy paragraph Chris dismisses all the years of scientific research that have gone into weather forecasting and shows his cretinous lack of understanding of the concepts of averages and probabilities.

I'll stop writing now as having that comment looking at me again is making me reach for the rusty needles.
