Stupid people

Only sometimes?
Every day I think "If brains caused pain, they wouldn't feel a thing".
That's just observing the yahoos outside the convenience store in the morning.

I've heard it's contagious, so I stay far away from those who are infected.

Ok, that made me laugh. A good one. Well, supposedly there's someone
for everybody. Maybe they're a good fit. So I hope they're happy.

I have a great one for you. This is true. Ok? My mother told me this
years ago. It's a story about a woman who was my mother's friend. Now,
this woman's boyfriend told this story to my mother. Got all that? Ok...

This man and woman were driving to Florida for some vacation time. Cruising
along I-95 and everything's cool.

Well, apparently someone lost a tire. I'm laughing just thinking about this. And
the tire was rolling and bouncing along... and this couple passed it. Ok? This
woman looked out the window and asked, "Is that from our car?" LOL

God bless her. Everytime her boyfriend told that story everyone roared, and
she just got PO'd.

OMFG.

I'm staying in a hotel, and have been for the last month. When we first got here, we didn't have a refrigerator in the room, so we had all our refrigerables in a cooler. When we found that there was no refrigerator, we took all the things that could spoil OUT of the cooler, so it wouldn't get nasty.

Unfortunately, we missed something. (We could no longer tell what it was.) When we opened the cooler a couple weeks later, we discovered this, and tried to wash the stench out of the cooler with bleach. We failed. So last night, we placed the cooler outside of our door, intending to throw it away this morning when we went by the dumpster.

Someone stole it.

A couple minutes ago, I went out of my room, and around the corner came a man carrying our cooler. Seeing me step out of the door, he attempted to hide the cooler behind his back so I wouldn't see it. I don't care, because we were going to throw it out anyway. He made his way past me, trying to hide the cooler from me the entire time, and went into the room next door.

Who the HELL steals something from the people next door at a hotel? And when caught red-handed with the stolen property, WTF makes you think you can conceal a 27-gallon cooler behind your back?!

My wife and I went to a flea market today.
As we were walking along we passed a coupe and their kids. The mother had dropped her sons drawers and was helping him pee. The problem was twofold. The building with the bathrooms was less than 100 feet away, and even closer was a patch of woods they could have walked to. Instead she was doing this right in the middle of the walkway.
This doesn't fall into stupid people so much as people with no manners or upbringing.

Actually my second link is my blog about my kidney failure
The third link is the art one, and I sent the answer to you in a PM
Now back to our regularly scheduled Off Topic discussion..........

KJ, I have looked.Interesting stuff, and one day I might be a customer!

As I was telling Tina, I have about 10-15 more pictures to put up on the site for the artist, so check back in a few days!

Hey Killer Joe... those are incredibly awesome graphics. How in the world
do you do them? I love that lamp-looking one on the right. And how did
you do that gallery like that? lol.

I may have to create a site for something just so I can use some of them.

PS- Sorry to go off topic in the off topic forum. But maybe it's expected. And
who really cares, anyway?

BTW, CDarklock... that's disgusting. lol. I wondered if you could smell it
when you passed him. People never cease to amaze the hell out of me.

It could also be taco de harina (wheat flour tacos)... as "burrito" means "little donkey"... thus the word burrito could be slang (and not to mention, they weren't even discovered as a FOOD item, until around the 1920's... so they are also a rather "new" kind of food)... thus there is in fact a "WORD" for burrito in spanish, if you consider the word "burrito" itself to be slang, thus making it invalid as a proper spanish word... and since american's discovered it, and gave it the above name- it may also be considered to be the "improper" spanish name for the actual food itself.

Mexicans, however, took on this slang word as well "burrito"...making it only the last 50+ years that the 'taco do harina' gained its new 'name' and acceptance as the name for that particular food.

So unbeknown to the silly people asking that question in the "fast food place"... there is in fact an answer to that seemingly stupid question. But there is a saying that goes like this: There are no stupid questions, just stupid people!

I like it when you hand someone a cup of coffee that's steaming enough to fog your sunglasses and they ask "is it hot?" LOL. No it's not hot, take a BIGG draw off that stuff fast before it quits steaming.

Lolz cool video by "Jared"

Who knows, maybe they wondered if that was an aberration! Do you know how to say french fries in Danish?

Pommes frites!

As I recall, it is the same in GERMANY! It may be the same in France! You see, pommes frites is a FRENCH term meaning "fried potatoes". Funny, huh?

And what of danske brod? That is a danish term meaning "danish", but translates directly as "danish bread".

Of course, I am just trying to play devils advocate. I like to order burritos, from spanish speaking waiters, in spanish. I once shocked a group when I said 'Yo quisiera un burrito especial con queso y carne, pero con NO frijoles.'" Had I ordered it in ENGLISH, they may have thought beef meant BEANS! So YEAH, spanish for burrito IS burrito, but MAYBE they meant something else.

That actually happened to me! I'm driving down a country road and look off to the left to see a tire bouncing alongside the car. I thought, where did that come from? I'm still driving along fine until suddenly.... If I hadn't slowed down while looking at the tire, I probably could have driven all the way home.

Here's some claimants returned car insurance forms (from a book published in the uk).

'I didn't see the car behind when I reversed into it!'

'I had no where to go so I hit the rear of the car in front'

'Unfortunately I wasn't expecting my neighbour o be reversing out of his driveway when I hit his car...he usually leaves 20 minues earlier'

'I swerved all over the road to avoid the car coming the other way but managed to hit it!'
