I say that all the time, that it must be great to be stupid. It'd be so much easy. Ignorance, after all, is bliss - and it's where the powers that be woudl like us to be, because you're less likely to resist. Power 101.
I laughed all the way through thinking of your wife with that t-shirt. Did she change it? Because if you thought that, sure as hell some students might. It's a cute thing to do though - I used to put posters up around the classroom. One of my favourites was about 'can't...YET' which my students would always say after I trained them in this positive mindset. It helped them see their learning differently. But I think stupid people can't even go that far.
No, I think she still wears it. I thought sure her principal was going to say something and end up getting fired for a Title 9 violation, but he never did. I think bliss is a really good word because there are so many folks who are just obliviously bliss about what is going on in the world.
