stupid people piss me offView Messages“is it just me or does it seem like the world is breeding stupidity??” 10:51:02 AM 1/13/04 “You noticed.” 10:51:29 AM 1/13/04 “judging by Buck's posts, I would have to agree....” 10:51:56 AM 1/13/04 “oh yeah ive noticed, it seems like i work with them all” 10:51:57 AM 1/13/04 “It's not just you.” 10:52:06 AM 1/13/04 “oh yeah whats buck postin?” 10:52:25 AM 1/13/04 “We here on TT are the only sane peeps left!” 10:52:42 AM 1/13/04 Sane? “LMAO at laqtis.” 10:53:25 AM 1/13/04 “well i was wondering if i was the only one with any damn common sense anymore” 10:53:38 AM 1/13/04 “i didnt say anything about sane, im by no means sane, but im by no means stupid either” 10:54:27 AM 1/13/04 “Common sense is so '90's.” 10:54:42 AM 1/13/04 “Well, let's see...ya got Britney Spears, Hillary Clinton, Prince Charles...and most of our legislation. I'd say I would have to agree on the stupid people.” 10:55:45 AM 1/13/04 Quote from my profile “I'm not saying we should kill all the stupid people in the world, I'm just saying we should remove the warning labels from everything and let the problem take care of itself.” 10:58:02 AM 1/13/04 “You mean you shouldn't use rat poison as coffee mate.” 10:59:38 AM 1/13/04 “Looks like batman just found the Wesley Clark thread.” 11:02:09 AM 1/13/04 “1. Common sense is not very common 2. Every time they make something idiot-proof, someone gives birth to a bigger idiot” 11:09:58 AM 1/13/04 “yeah this is all true, but still it pisses me off” 11:36:22 AM 1/13/04 “so what or who, precisely, is pissing you off with their sub-average intelligence?” 11:39:15 AM 1/13/04 “I think the world needs stupid people for their pure entertainment value. Ever see a kid behind the counter at McDonalds try to make change in their head? Priceless.” 11:43:32 AM 1/13/04 “For everything else there's MasterCard. I agree though lumberzac, you choose how to react. Pissed or entertained. I choose entertained.” 11:50:08 AM 1/13/04 “What always gets me is that the stupid ones are the ones breeding at 10 times the rate of the intelligent ones. This would also support batman's observance that people are generally getting stupider.” 11:54:19 AM 1/13/04 How many kids have you had? “"...people are generally getting stupider." or should i ask how many siblings do you have? :) :)” 11:57:04 AM 1/13/04 “Oh, blow me........................more stupid” 12:02:42 PM 1/13/04 “I was sitting at a connivance store / gas station waiting for some friends to show up for a hike. A SUV with NJ plates pulled into the pump and three yuppie type women got out of the SUV. Two went into the store the other stood by the pump with a distressed look on her face as she read the words “self service.” She immediately pulled out her cell phone, but cell phones don’t work in most of the Adirondack Park. Finally her two friends came back out and they all had a discussion. The only words I was able to make out were, “I don’t know how it works.” At that point my friends arrived and we left for our hike. I don’t know if they ever got their gas.” 12:04:58 PM 1/13/04 “I sure as hell may be dumb, but I ain't STUPID! Wait, that didn't sound right. Okay, maybe I am... so?” 12:05:45 PM 1/13/04 IJ “How could I resist? Especially on this thread?” 12:17:49 PM 1/13/04 Full service only? “Where does one live to not have mostly self serve stations?” 12:19:58 PM 1/13/04 “ignorance can be fixed....studpidity on the other hand...see the Humpty Dumpty story....” 12:24:59 PM 1/13/04 “If you live in NJ it's all full service. Kinda wierd. I was at a quick shop in Orlando and some guy was befuddled at the self service pump - he told me he'd never seen one since he lives in Jersey.” 12:30:07 PM 1/13/04 “They could have at least read the directions on the pump. Although it was more of a case of ignorance and not stupidity.” 12:35:46 PM 1/13/04 “A friend of my teenage daughter was filling up daddy's Mercedes for the first time. She called dad to find out which hoze to use. He said to use the most expensive gas. Cost him about a grand to clean the diesel fuel out of the Mercedes.” 12:47:20 PM 1/13/04 “...and what is with all the over-turned vehicles on the morning traffic reports? i agree, the average IQ is going down!” 12:52:46 PM 1/13/04 “Oregon, as well as NJ, feels it's people are not to be trusted with gasoline. And as far as common sense, it's just common. What you need is GOOD sense.” 1:04:14 PM 1/13/04 “Actually, its a great way to preserve employment for less-than-average intelligenced folk.” 1:23:21 PM 1/13/04 “I feel sorry for stupid people. people driving while on the cellphone, they piss me off!!” 2:37:15 PM 1/13/04 Cell phones & driving “I've seen a lot worse, Gemini. How about applying makeup?” 3:39:38 PM 1/13/04 “Driving while on a phone is illegal here...” 3:42:08 PM 1/13/04 That explains it! “I was shocked when I pulled into a station in NJ (on my way to the ADKs) and found full service. I got out of my car as a habit and was told it was full serv only. Thought this might just apply to the expressways.” 3:42:28 PM 1/13/04 “DC just made cell use illegal. Yet we have a ton o "DIPS" driving around with "international licenses and diplomatic immunity". Scary as Crap!” 3:44:10 PM 1/13/04 “bearmagnet...I felt like a queen while getting gas in NY. LOL. I didn't see full services since we moved from the west coast. Not sure, but I think oregon is a full service state too. OH, and I NEVER apply makeup while driving, did see someone do it though before. But then I was sittin' in the passenger seat of someone shaving while driving.... remember binkley?? LOL” 3:47:51 PM 1/13/04 Shaving? “Male or Female? What were they shaving?” 3:52:10 PM 1/13/04 “"well i was wondering if i was the only one with any damn common sense anymore" Don't flatter yourself babe :P” 5:49:16 PM 1/13/04 “zooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.” 12:49:05 PM 1/14/04 “I once got behind someone who was using an eyelash curler while driving with a child in the car. Nuff said. What's even worse? How many times have I seen people weaving down the road reading instead of driving? Too many!” 12:55:07 PM 1/14/04 “Let's see there was the guy that was shaving while driving, but the worse are the people that are reading the morning paper while they drive.” 12:56:45 PM 1/14/04 “Driving while on a phone is illegal here..." Treebeard 03:42:08 PM Lord, I would hope so! I bet that's a real pain in the a$$ driving while siting on a phone. ;-)” 12:57:39 PM 1/14/04 “Right, Stovie! lol The niggest trick is getting the car into that small kitchen! j/k Unfortunately, the law is not as enforced as it should be. Too many knuckleheads doing it unimpeded here...” 1:13:24 PM 1/14/04 Just last week... “I saw a guy in the locker room talking on his cell phone to some woman while he was standing at the urinal! He was asking her about some truck for sale, jabbering away, while bleeding his lizard. he was still on the phone when he flushed the thing...sheesh!” 1:20:55 PM 1/14/04 “"Oh hi, I was inquiring about the truck for sale *tinkle tinkle*...yeah, how much, blah, blah, blah, FLUSH blah, blah..."” 1:25:06 PM 1/14/04 “"people driving while on the cellphone, they piss me off!!......." Here's a goodie: A friend of mine was coming home the other day on the freeway. He was an hour or so late for dinner. He before he got into his car, he drank a tall Guiness. He was driving down the freeway, cell in one hand and another 22 oz beer in the other and slammed into the car in front of him, wreaking both cars. The phone was still on when his wife tried to call him on it. She picked up the phone and heard "If you know what's good for you, you'll sit down and shut up!" on the other end. His wife freaks, thinking he's being car jacked and runs to the police station (down the block), with the threee youngins in tow. She gets there and the phone rngs. It's my friend telling her that he's been in a accient and she needs to come and pick him up on the freeway. She asked where he was and he couldn't remember, but told her to just get in the car and drive. She finally gets there (after he asks the cop where they're at) and picks him up. the kicker - The cop let him go with only one ticket(folowing tooo close). The lady he rear ended didn't have any insurance (required to drive a car in Michigan). Dood is lucker than hell, he shoulda went to jail. Wait until the rest of us get a hold of him!” 1:25:55 PM 1/14/04
