Okay, what do you do when you come across a person so dumb that he is pressing the down arrow key with his arm and at the same time is trying to use the mouse to scroll up on a web page... And then turns around to you and says... "I think someone else has taken over my machine... See... I'm trying to scroll up but the page automatically keeps on scrolling down!!! This so spooky!!! Maybe this is a virus"
Now for the icing on the sake... Replace the man in question above with a woman... And the arm with her breast... And the best part is ... This is happening with her for the second time!!!
GAWD!!! How irritatingly dumb can anyone get...???
You know there are two kinds of dumb people... The first kind is like this...
The Boss: Can you tell me how many units did we sell last month...???
The Employee: No, but I can tell you how many times did Michael Jordan
score off a fade away in each of the NBA Finals he's ever played in...
Now such people will obviously be considered to be dumb... But... If you look closely he is not dumb, he just has command over thoroughly useless information. (Hey, at least he told him that he doesn't have the answer)
Such people I can live with... If nothing else they make great partners in a sozzled conversation.
Then there are the other types of dumb people... Here is what they are like...
They'll wear extremely tight clothes to remind themselves that they need to slim down... Or mark stuff on papers with a highlighter, which according to them is not worth reading... Or ask, "then what happened?" long after the joke ends... Ok so you know the kind I'm talking about... These are the ones who I can't live with...
So I have started documenting ways to pick out such people from a crowd...
They are the only ones laughing at their own jokes in a group
While everyone else is forcing a smile on their faces
They are the most conscious of themselves when they are all alone
They fall for the easiest tricks in the book... (i.e. they have never heard of - "Fool me once shame on you, Fool me twice shame on me"
They'll laugh at your most pathetic jokes
They are usually not very bright about computers and would never accept this fact
They are very territorial
Their proximics are totally screwed up
There are so many ways to pick them out... but these are the ones which generally some to mind... if you know more, then your additions are welcome.

A blog for all and none... ... no I am not emulating Nietzsche just the name of his book... am not even claiming to be a philosopher... well... philosophical maybe... anyways, this is where I rant, I sing, I muse, and just talk to anybody who might stumble upon this blog...
