    I don't come across situations like this all the time, but it got me thinking of those moments when you're just thinking "really? Are you fúcking kidding me?"

    When stupidity baffles.

    I got on DB into town last week and the bus driver was there reading a newspaper. Bus is jammed, cyclists and traffic is mental, and this nob-end is just sitting there with the newspaper over the wheel, taking his eyes up every few seconds to see where he's going..

    What newspaper was it?

    *This is important

    I've seen people read newspapers too.

    Who do they think they are? They probably think they're better than me. Knob-ends, the lot of 'em.

    I've said this before, and it sounds like bullshít, but it's true.

    I was once on a bus from where I used to live (a fairly countryside-ish town) to school, about 20 minutes away. I was going in for an exam, so this would've been lunchtime rather than rush hour.

    As we drove through little country roads, the driver pulled up, reached to a stack of newspapers by his seat, and delivered them through the letterboxes of the houses on the road. None of the biddies on the bus batted an eyelid.

    Probably just using the newspaper to cover the fact he was having a quick ****. Perfectly understandable.

    I was making pasta and let it boil for too long and the water bubbled over the pot. Stupid bastard i am.

    was in a deli once and asked for a sandwich with ham and coleslaw.

    Guy behind the counter buttered the bread and put a slice of ham on it.

    then he gets two great big tubs, one with mayonaise and one with shredded carrot.

    he sticks his hand into the tub of mayonnaise......no gloves on.......takes a great big blob of it out......sticks the blob of mayonnaise into the shredded carrot and mixes it in with his bare hand......

    then takes spoon and puts some coleslaw on the sandwich.

    Actually, if its alright, i think I'll just have a bag of crisps instead.

    My friend once asked me, "why do muslims think Muhammad Ali is God?"

    I said, "are you serious?"

    He didn't reply!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,647 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    One time, there was somebody on the internet who said something stupid and outlandish. I corrected him and really put him in his place.

    The end.

    OK I'll bite.

    Why is this stupid? I respond to emails when I'm sitting in heavy traffic. If the traffic is at a standstill, what's the big deal?

    He never said it was at a standstill. And reading the paper while in control of 40-60 peoples lives is not only dangerously moronic, it's illegal.

    I once had to get public transport and there was a man sitting opposite me reading The Star newspaper! I was flabbergasted, I never knew people who got the bus were educated. It's changing times we live in.

    So are you saying there was open road in front of him, or was the traffic pretty much stalled?

    Reminds me of those imbeciles who make your sandwich wearing those see through gloves thinking they're being all hygienic, only to hand you the food, take your money and give back your change while still wearing the gloves. And then proceed to make the next persons sandwich.

    I’ve been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It’s just common sense
