I stumbled across this. When I showed my wife she said she saw it on the news already, so maybe you have too.

Ever lost faith in humanity?When was the last time you lost faith in humanity? Most adults have lived enough life to have at least one experience that makes one think that humans are garbage. Of course this thought is based on the emotion of the moment, but it's still a very real...
