That's quite possibly the silliest thing I've read. Google is a gigantic research library, right at one's fingertips- if a quote or accusation gets posted, with no context attached, it gives one the opportunity to do some research and find out whether it's true, misquoted, or more sh*t made up by Bill O'Reilly.
I take it you don't like to read anything non-fiction, do you Pillowpants? Seeing as how factual books have to back up what they say with other facts- you know, that section in the back of the book that lists lots of other books. I think it's called a bibliography. I mean, if the author doesn't have the information placed in his or her head by God, then he or she must be condescending to the reader by trying to back up what he or she is saying with facts, right?
Or are you just trying to justify why you didn't study in high school with this whole ridiculous "parrot" thing? Though, of course, you might have been dating, unlike some of us.
God save us from people who think they're done learning at 18. Some of them, unfortunately, are now running the country.
