Funny of the day

I came across this comment over at TierneyLab, the blog of New York Times libertarian science columnist John Tierney.

In our modern world, computer program algorithms coordinate commercial aircraft traffic across entire continents, optimize investment strategies for billion dollar wall street portfolios and define national political poling [sic] strategies. However, it now appears that brilliant programmers with heaps of computing power cannot create a simple program that matches every single individual X with another single individual Y where Y is younger, more attractive and taller than X. The reason that this cannot be done is explained by something called Finite Set Theory (also known as Look in the Mirror, You Moron, Theory).

I think I prefer the colloquialism, it's more straightforward and easily understood.
