BOOKS THAT MAKE YOU DUMB

Sure, there are problems with causation and correlation.

But it's still fascinating to see a chart that shows the results of cross-referencing the ten most popular books at every college (based on Facebook profiles, which, in my opinion, isn't representative of much) and the school's average SAT score.

Why am I wasting my time reading Choke? I need to go get me a copy of Lolita and 100 Years of Solitude right quick.

I wish somebody would do a regression analysis for television shows and IQ.

(Or is it just a foregone conclusion that Rock of Love actually makes people dumber?)
