Review: Welcome to the Stupidpocalypse – Survival Tips for the Dumbageddon

/ 3 Comments / Celebrities, Politics, Reviews, Social Marketing

You’ve probably read a funny post or watched a viral video by Brittlestar, aka Stewart Reynolds. He’s all over social media as Canada’s Dad, nailing Canadianisms and other isms including polarizing subjects with wit, humour, and just the right tone. His comedy hits a narrow sweet spot between “if you do this, you’re stupid” and, “stupid doesn’t mean worthless – let me give you a hug!”
