How to Make Your Head Explode

It's easy! Just visit any news site (CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, it doesn't matter which one), and find a political story (again, it doesn't matter which one). Don't bother reading the story, it doesn't matter what it says. Go straight to the comments.
Now, I understand that the ability to type is not limited to those who also possess the ability to reason, but still it astounds me how the "comments section" has become America's common marketplace for head-exploding ideas. Right-wing, left-wing, psych-ward, all are represented. Us Americans believe in some whacky-ass shit, and we're not afraid to anonymously beat it out of our keyboards.
When, O when will the apocalypse finally come? If you're tired of waiting, like me, you can explode your own head.
It reminds me of a wonderful Nellie McKay song:
Do you have a little time?
Would you like to ease my mind?
Talk for hours and never stop,
Chop your head off!
Be a lighter person,
brighter person,
nicer,
but you've heard it all before.
