Operation Blockhead ready to accommodate whoever at a modest fee

Thanks to the miracle of modern scientific medicine and the operating table, it is now possible to entirely reshape the contours of the human skull.

The result is what is described medically as an operation to produce the calvarium clausus, or a square-shaped skull also known as "block-shaped."

In fact, the term "blockhead" is now rapidly evolving to more complimentary instead of its traditional meaning at "stupid."

Adherents of being blockheaded are working to present the image as an emblem of "loyalty" to whatever cause they espouse.

Their heroes are authoritarian and supremacist, plus enjoy bullying and acts of violence.

The assassins in the current attack in Paris on the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo likely belong to this breed.

But violent groups, whatever their politics, also belong.

Hospitals are now reporting a crush of interest world-wide from those seeking information and scheduling for the blockhead operation.

The reason most commonly given is "To identify myself with people who are right, always right. The human is a savage animal. Has been throughout history."

These people are not confined to one political group, but exist in bunches within all political groups, and are more accurately defined psychologically.

As with:

*screwballs
*screwloose
*psychopathic
*self-obsessed
*devoid of humor
*barbaric

Spokespersons for this global class have indicated that having a head shaped squarely into a solid-looking block henceforward will make their lives much easier.

They will be immediately recognizable and command respect since people will be fleeing to get out of their way, as with avoiding a bad odor.

Meanwhile, the fashion industry is reported working on a variety of new types of head gear for blockheads, including helmets, to accompany this new style and boost the global economy.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
