Get On The Bus and I Ain't Talking Rapid Transit!



"Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that half of them are stupider than that."  -- George Carlin

Let's talk about stupidity. Nothing gets me more wound up than stupid people doing stupid things. Now, don't be looking at me like I'm intolerant and being unkind. The truth is that many of us have encountered stupidity (some of us have even engaged in stupidity) and we almost all react the same way to it. It annoys the hell out of us.

For me, stupidity has nothing to do with educational level or intellectual ability. In fact, some of the stupidest people I know have MBAs (the degree of choice among the would-be elite) while some of the smartest people I know barely have a secondary school education. Stupidity is a lack of common sense and not being able to think. God help us! There are just so many folks out there who just don't stop and think before they open their mouths or do something.
