although I try not to judge, I'm human, and the first thing I think when I see motorcyclists without helmets is --- STUPID!

Cloud is right there.....I just saw a chick this summer (riding on the back) with (barely) a shirt that was held on by a string, no helmet, no gloves, but what? Sunglasses......

I told my husband: If she would like to continue to be hot, she might want to put some gear on before her pretty skin is shaven off by the road when she hits it.

Watching that made me cringe a little on the inside...uuugh.

"Sorry for the incontinence." Written numerous times, in emails to the entire college, by a co-worker.

Cicero 11-07-2007 03:26 PM

"______ Pride"
Being proud of anything having to do with an association or coincidence of birth, not an actual achievement of your own.
Stupid.

For me, it's "Sorry, no," with eye contact, but not even slowing down. I didn't used to be that brusque, but 16 years of walking past these guys every day will get you to streamline a bit. They will still be there tomorrow if you give them cash or not. No homeless people starve in DC. Plenty of soup kitchens. Lots of shelters too. I donate $ to the shelters and kitchens to keep from feeling too much guilt.

ok....
Stupid people ask for money I see (in nice coats or not).....there's a reccurring theme here.....

I was not aware of that. The next time someone asks me for money I will call them stupid.

er, I think Zengum was berating himself for falling for a con, not that the requesting party was stupid.

Cicero 11-07-2007 03:51 PM

....there's a recurring theme here......

Zengum did what when?!? what?

The only school I ever got in trouble in.......I'm glad I had a short stay there.

The only con I've been suckered into lately was accepting Cicero's challenge to reach 1,000 posts, when she was already 700 in front of me.

I thought the point about the stupid people and beggars was the sucker who gives an unreasonably large amount of money to a beggar because they believed some made-up sob story. I'm not really sure if that is stupidity though.
Or am I being stupid in not grasping your irony and you already knew this? Duhhhhhhh?

My next stupid people story comes from when I was working in a petrol station (gas station to USAns.) A refinery strike led to an odds-and-evens rationing system; you could only buy petrol on alternate days, depending on whether your number plate ended with an even or odd number.
Questions included:
*Is it the first digit or last digit I check? (from a guy whose numbers were ALL even!)
*Is zero an even number? (Just let me check my reference list for you sir...)
*What's an even number? (WTF? Helllloooooo?)
