IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: I live a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: “Too many deer were being hit by cars,” and he didn't want them to cross there anymore. This one was from Kingman, Arizona.

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE: My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for “minimal lettuce.” He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg. And he was a Chicago chef!

IDIOT SIGHTING: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, “Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge? To which I replied, “If it was without my knowledge, how would I know? He smiled knowingly and nodded, “That's why we ask.” This happened in Birmingham, Alabama.

IDIOT SIGHTING: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine, when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, “What on earth are blind people doing driving?!” She was a probation officer in Los Angeles.

IDIOT SIGHTING: At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker who was leaving the company due to “downsizing,” our manager commented cheerfully, “This is fun. We should do this more often.” Not a word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the headlights stare. This was a bunch at Texas Instruments.

IDIOT SIGHTING: I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself, and for the life of her, couldn't understand why her system would not turn on. A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriff's office no less.

IDIOT SIGHTING: When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. “Hey,” I announced to the technician, “It's open!” To which he replied, “I know I already got that side.” This was at the Ford dealership in Canton, Mississippi.

And they walk among us and reproduce. Kinda scary.

They certainly do. Walk among us and reproduce. At an alarming rate. And they're the only ones who manage to get rich and occupy important positions in society.

There are a few in Office because they are puppets.

the 5th one was the best, though they were all good.

thing is, it'd be so easy to catch me doing something totally retarded, its not even worth bothering. My sister's worse, i mean, shes a f*cking imbecile. The thing is, though, shes academically really smart.

Maybe everyone messes up sometimes, is what im saying. These guys were unlucky enough to speak or act without thinking, and have someone around who broadcast it on the internet.

I write down everything that my classmates say during class without thinking. I have a pretty long collection... Let's see... Just a few quick examples.

"So, -2 x 0 equals... -0?"
"The white whale is over 20km long."
"What? I thought Jamaica was in Africa!"

That doesn't mean they're all idiots.

But of course, but of course.
Though, does that excuse them for it?
The defining points of idiotic instances are the insults following them.
When you're stupid is synonymous with when you're reproached, if you don't reproach yourseslf, and we don't reproach you, you clearly weren't stupid.
Therefore the very existence of idiots depends upon us making fun of them, and them making fun of us, so I'm only doing my job, as I'm sure someone will soon do to me.
Like, I could post some homegrown stoner tales, or some homegrown not stoner tales for that matter.

My personal favorite was the deer crossing as well.
I've been thinking about acting as though I wanted the deer sign removed for those reasons just to see what the highway patrol does with me when I say it.

hmm...

so the question you could ask might be; are those who get reproached idiots, or are those who don't get reproached not idiots? think about that one, it makes sense to ask. cause the first leads you to conclude we're all idiots, the second to conclude none of us are.

I hate It when, I get done using the bathroom. And someone always seems to ask. "What took so long?"
Do people really want to know the answer to that? It happens all the time. WHY DO PEOPLE ASK THAT? So one day I desided to be honest. "I took a really big crap and it kinda looked like a fish" Every one was like Eeew I really did not want to know that.. So like then why do you ask? No one can tell me the reason.

^ Women take FOREVER in the bathroom. And they go to the bathroom in groups. And in front of women's bathroom there's ALWAYS a line of people.

ErikaFuzzbottom · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 3:54 pm

I think some males forget that females can't make very good use of urinals.

Except in the case of getting ready-type bathrooms. You know, where it is generally assumed women take forever doing their hair, putting on makeup, deciding that the dress they picked out doesn't look with their colored contacts...

Colored contatcts... Who's bright idea was those things?

Agentsix · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 4:12 pm

Don't forget some men now go to the bathroom and stay longer inside.

Kittykicker · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 5:06 pm

When it comes to both sexes. They both take dumps.
Why can't people just assume that someone is just taking a sh*t? It makes the most sence.

EDIT: Now I just tell people that theres a shoe sale going on
in stall 3. Everyone seems to understand that for some reason.

Agentsix · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 5:16 pm

Some think of childish things like the women are in there plotting to hurt the male or something ridiculous.

Kittykicker · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 5:18 pm

I try not to hang out with creepy thinkers like that.

skyscrapper13 · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 5:49 pm

They go in groups and stay inside talking. Gossip, 99% of the cases.
Most of the time they do nothing at all bathroom-like.

At least, over here =P

Kittykicker · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 6:07 pm

^ Yes I can agree with that. But the problem is that. I mostly go by my self. And people still ask me. I'm not just going to meet strangers in the bathroom and start talking to them. Its me by my self.. In a bathroom.
Do I have to make loud straning sounds to get people to understand? I think this is a stupis question to ask someone.

skyscrapper13 · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 6:11 pm

^ in this case, hell yeah, what's wrong with the people asking?

Thinking of which, I usually tend to ask that too... I guess... sometimes. O.o

TheAsianInvasion · **Posted:** August 6th, 2006, 6:20 pm

From what I've heard through the thin walls of a resturaunt in New York, they talk about their dates and what to do next just to see how the men react. It's a friggin experiment. Sometimes I believe that women are so used to going in packs, that if you go to a resturaunt with one alone, and she doesn't have any friends at that resturaunt, she probably won't squeeze a drop. For those that haven't read my ranting and ravings about my job, I deal with people over the phone. I ask people for details on their vehicles because I order hitches for towing purposes. I ask for year make and model and they give color, mileage and type of transmission. Most people are stupid due to ignorance. They always think that they know it all, and they seem to think that they know what you want. And then when you ask for that information again, they ask more questions like Why do you need that? I mean come on, you called me, and I'm trying to give you the right answer, maybe I'll just tell the next person to go return their car to the dealership since it didn't come with a hitch and must therefore be defective.

See... Its a man thing just to ask? Its strange. Maybe they want to hear that women are masterbating. I think men would really like that answer. Its not the truth. But I bet the answer will be most welcomed. :kittykicker:
