Idiocy

Posted March 15, 2006 to Quotes category.

Mr Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I've ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response was there anything that could even be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. - from the movie Billy Madison.

The quote most applicable to many discussions found on the internet.

a judge actually used this billy madison quote in a footnote for a motion in court on march 6th to tell the defendant that he is an idiot.

Good for the judge! I had seen that somewhere. The really amazing thing is that judgements and legal proceedings are available online...

Interesting, this exact quote was used in a Court of Appeals opinion making it a first for 'movie quotes in courts' (that homony was an accident)
