WHAT ARE SHEEPLE???? Sheep+ PEOPLE = SHEEPLE SHEEPLE: "The label seems to have originated among those in the United States and refers to people who tend to accept and follow everything at face value. Especially if it is cited in the mainstream media. It is often used to denote persons who voluntarily acquiesce to a perceived authority, or suggestion without sufficient research to fully understand the scope of the ramifications involved in that decision, and thus undermine their own human individuality or in other cases give up certain rights. The implication of sheeple is that as a collective, people believe whatever they are told, especially if told so by a perceived authority figure believed to be trustworthy, without processing it or doing adequate research to be sure that it is an accurate representation of the real world around them. The term is generally used in a political and sometimes in a religious sense......" What have you been a SHEEPLE for??? How about the SHEEPLE around you??? DO TELL!

RYAN SEACREST

Ryan Seacrest is going to take over the world. I am certain of it. He produces a million shows on the E! network, he hosts AMERICAN IDOL which, lets be honest, has already taken over the world….he has a radio show, AND great teeth. He’s going to take over….watch out. Next thing you know you’ll have sheets and pillows with his face on it.

I happen to love Ryan Seacrest and Apple products, but I only think one is deserving of scorn. Guess which one. You’re wrong.
