Lobotomy’s back – controversial procedure is making a comeback
Discover, Oct. 1997, by Frank T. Vertosick
‘M’ (she can’t remember the rest of her name) started wondering whether this was the way to fix her work woes.
“I’m always getting in trouble for pointing out the stupidity. I figured that a self-lobotomy would make the idiots make more sense. Only now, I get in trouble for just sitting there and not saying anything.”
M admitted that she wanted to give the annoying co-workers the lobotomy, but realized they were already way ahead of her. She and fellow intelligent meeting attendees are repeatedly chastised for picking on the idiots. Somehow they continuously make it work for them. Yet, alas, she still faces reprimands.
M’s conclusion: “even a lobotomy can’t make a bad meeting better”, and “ignorance is only bliss if you were born with it”.
“I don’t think the lobotomy was a total loss though, if I drool enough on my keyboard maybe it’ll short out and electrocute me to a comfortable death.”
