The problem with being stupid is...

[Gandalf]

...how do you know if you are stupid? Ever wonder that? These people did: http://www.apa.org/journals/features/psp7761121.pdf

Gandalf,

There's an easier way to determine whether you are one of these unfortunate individuals - if you have the word "Manager" in your job title, you're it.

In 1995, McArthur Wheeler walked into two Pittsburgh banks
and robbed them in broad daylight, with no visible attempt at
disguise. He was arrested later that night, less than an hour after
videotapes of him taken from surveillance cameras were broadcast
on the 11 o'clock news. When police later showed him the surveillance
tapes, Mr. Wheeler stared in incredulity. "But I wore the
juice," he mumbled. Apparently, Mr. Wheeler was under the
impression that rubbing one's face with lemon juice rendered it
invisible to videotape cameras. (Fuocco, 1996)

Now that definitely qualifies for this week's MOST CLUELESS AWARD. :rolleyes: Everyone knows that only works with Lime juice.

Sorry about that, Gisli!

A soft cloth moistened with a little lemon juice should clean it up nicely. :D

One way of telling if you are stupid is if you are at the head of the line in a store or the Post Office--and 15 people are lined up behind you.

I used to live in an area full of stupid people who knew they were stupid and were quite easy to be around. My present "home town" is surrounded by stupid people who don't care that they are stupid and believe themselves to be the center of the world besides. They are constantly angry because "outsiders" do not bow to them or send money--they are constantly in need of the latter despite working semi-skilled jobs which pay $30 or more per hour in wages and benefits. Not fun to be around at all.

One has to wonder why, when reasoning and intelligence are the basic survival tools of the human race (we certainly weren't issued with fangs, claws, or warm winter fur), the absence of either or both appears to cause no discomfort on the part of the person lacking same. It can generally be seen, however in everyone who must interact with that person.

Just a brief word on this study: it explains George Bush's self-appraisal flawlessly.

This applies doubly to ATM Machines.:mad:

Ah yes....I recall one particularly "amusing" promotional event held by a local bank. They offered a free 2-liter bottle of pop to anyone who had a teller show them how to use the ATM--during the week Social Security checks came out. In that case, I think it was the folks behind the counters who needed their brains flossed. Then again, they had to deal with the mess.

But I KNOW I'm stupid enough to know I'm stupid. I don't actually need a website to tell me what I already know .....or is that Stupid :D
