Have you ever run across truly stupid people? Not the ones who are just acting stupid, but the genuine article? The ones that if you say hello, they feel they have the right to tell you their life story? The ones who ask really stupid questions? You know, like this for example: "Where exactly am I?" Look at a map.
I deal with some stupid people every day. They will ask for one thing, then look you in the eye and mutter, yes mutter, that's not what I said. Do their brains not kick into gear before they open their mouth, or don't they realize what and how they look?
There is also the matter of how these people dress. Look in a mirror before walking out door. Make sure clothes fit like they are supposed to, make sure hair is brushed and/or combed. Please wash and use deodorant. Very few people like the natural smell that accumulates after a week.
Oh, and please put on actual clothing. Yesterday at work, this one lady (and I use the term loosely) came into the store, light weight sweatshirt, capris, and of all things, flip flops. Get a clue, this is Minnesota, it is not the Bahama, Hawaii or the Carribean. It was sloppy and wet and the wet was cold. These are also the same people that then exclaim "I can't believe how cold it is, is it ever going to warm up?" Duh, do you see snow on the ground? Of course it's cold, it's winter.
We also get the ones in who think they are just the funniest person alive. We had one goof in that claimed that women when they get older just get older. What?
I am sure you have all had your share of run ins with this type of person. Doesn't make it easier to deal with, just makes it easier to laugh at. So go ahead and laugh, chuckle, chortle, giggle or guffaw. They have it coming.
Thought for the day: If you run across enough stupid people, does that make you smarter for recognizing them?
