Sometimes I have to wonder, “how stupid can some people really be?” It’s mind-boggling that some people can actually wake up in the morning, get dressed, and hold on to a job. In nearby Seattle, there’s a Highway 520 bridge project going on by the Kiewit-General-Manson construction company. A hidden camera was set up in […]
I’ve heard of a lot of crazy things. It seems as if some people will do just about anything to get high. There’s, of course, huffing aka inhalant abuse, where idiots sniff all sorts of chemicals to get high. Now I’ve read that teenagers are drinking, yes, drinking, hand sanitizer for the alcohol! According to […]
I usually reserve my weekly feature “I See Dumb People” to people in America but sometimes I read about something really dumb elsewhere around the world. This week’s entry involves a 17-year old teenager who sold his kidney so he could buy an iPhone and iPad. I’ve read about and have actually seen a movie […]
Eighty-three year old, Evelyn Paswell, is suing Apple because she accidentally ran into one of its glass storefronts and broke her nose. Apple is famous for its store designs with walls and floors made of glass-like materials. She claims that her eyesight is good enough to allow her to drive, but is suing for $1 […]
I can’t tell you how many dumb things I read every day. The dumb stuff ranges from some new green technology that will never work, to some dumb criminal activity, to something a celebrity said. Last week I heard about a “study” from the University of Minnesota which found that listening to rock music, even […]
The other day on the radio, I heard what had to be the dumbest introduction of a story I’ve heard in a very long time. The host said, “I’m sure you’ve all lied about seeing a movie you hadn’t seen in order to appear cultured; after the break, I’ll give you the name of the […]
Last month, I read that a Seattle woman complained to the Lake City branch librarian that a man was watching hard-core porn on the library’s computer, with the screen facing toward the room. Another woman at the Greenwood branch, complained that while she was looking for “puppy books” with her children, she saw a man […]
And I also see some dumb ideas. Take for example the use of “green” waterless urinals at a high school in Boca Raton, Florida. The school installed these useless urinals in order to save $100 a year per urinal and will end up paying $500,000 to fix the problem. “School officials at Spanish River High […]
I don’t get sports. I don’t get the home team spirit. I don’t get the whole Super Bowl, Playoffs, Championships, World Series thing. But I do get that I’m in the minority. I also get that it’s a multi-billion dollar business in this country and it is what it is. No one forces me to […]
Michael Fuller of North Carolina thought he was going to hit the big time when he went into a store to buy $476 worth of stuff at Walmart. Either he was incredibly dumb or trying to pull a fast one – I say both. He tried buying his vacuum cleaner with a $1,000,000.00 bill insisting […]
