Transcript:
Goat: What are you writing, Rat? Rat: Well, you've heard of books like 'Chemistry for Dummies'? I'm writing my own series... 'Chemistry for Morons.' Goat: But you don't know anything about chemistry. Rat: They won't know the difference.
There’s potential for a whole series there. Architecture for Morons, Economics for Morons, Political Leadership for Morons, the Music Industry for Morons, it just goes on and on.
It’s like the person selling books for $19.95 telling how to win millions in the lottery……why doesn’t he just use the information himself and win big instead of $19.95 at a time…..

I want to set up a webcam for his video series. The one on safety for violently reactive chemicals with demonstrations.

What about “chemistry for banjo injurers” ?

Rat sounds suspiciously like too many “self-help” authors, who nevertheless seem to make a good living at what they do!

It’s downright oxymoronic.

We already have ‘Political Leadership for Morons’. It’s called ‘congress’.

No they won’t!
lfishman about 13 years ago
I’ve always thought the field of chemistry could use more dummies and morons.
yatman about 13 years ago
Right on target ladyellen2!

Pity. The only states with people stupid enough to need this book are those states what don’t believe in all that new-fangled ‘science’ nonsense.

Has anyone ever wondered whether Rat might start running a Ponzi scheme? That sort of ploy would fit him well…;)

How about “Playing Banjo for Morons”? Or “Writing for Morons”?
fatjimi about 13 years ago
There are many books written – and sold – under that premise.
