I saw the worst bumper sticker in the world today. It read: "My child has more chromosomes than yours" -- I wanted to run the woman off the road.
Let me tell you about a little disorder called trisomy-21. It's a genetic disorder signified by an extra 21st chromosome. Trisomy-21 is associated with some impairment of cognitive ability and physical growth as well as facial appearance. It's fairly common in this day and age amongst older parents.
Most of you know it as Down's Syndrome.
That bitch thinks she's being cute.
