THE MEDIA EXPOSES STUPIDITY

 

 For those of you that think that when you do something really

stupid that you think you have got away with it, think again!!!

If it requires the police or the courts or anything having to do

with it being in public, the media will pick up on it and tell us

all. Whether it be newspaper or television or even the internet,

the world will find out about your dumbassedness.

 

 So this is why we know about people like Barbara Dutton of

Des Moines, Iowa who was fired from her job as a SUPPLY

CLERK at a 12-employee company for gross incompetence. 

Dutton had ordered, over an 18 month time period about $230,000

of office supplies, including 16,000 pens and $15,000 in Scotch

Tape. Dutton later said “I did not realize that I was not needing

everything” .

 

Say what?

 

Now let me get this one straight. You work as a supply clerk for a

small (12 person) company and you did not know that you DID NOT

NEED 16,000 pens and $15,000 in tape? You never saw all the pens

and tape stacking up? What’s jacked with this picture????

 

 Or how abut Cornell Jackson of Panama City, Florida who was on

trial for 2 assault cases with his ex-girlfriend. Cornell claimed insanity

and to prove it to the jury, he loudly yelled “Cuckoo-cuckoo” and then

dropped his pants and mooned the jury. The jury found him guilty in

30 minutes and he was dragged from the courtroom by two bailiffs and

2 sheriff’s deputies.

 

 So we can thank the media for letting us know about the “geniuses”

among us. (I personally want to thank the media because if it were not

for them, this book would not be written).

 

 Just as the media tells on the asininity of those on the bottom of the scale

so too does it tell about those being dumb on the higher end of the scale.

Let’s start with the “wizardry” of Paris Hilton. In May of 2006, Paris was at

the unveiling of HER OWN video game at the Electronics Entertainment

Expo in Los Angeles. The game was titled “Paris Hilton’s Jewel Jam” but

when it came time for her to introduce HER new game, it somehow got

changed to “Diamondquest”

 

 Not far behind on the MINAB scale (Here is a new one for you all. While the

TRUE geniuses have their MENSA, the MAD’s among us now have MINAB.

(MINAB stands for Man I Need A Brain) is Britney Spears, whose first marriage

to her childhood friend Jason Allen Alexander took place to after a long night

of drinking and who knows what else. Spears had to file annulment papers

admitting that she basically did not understand her actions when she agreed

to the marriage. Well, I think it is hard to understand how anyone could NOT

understand NO MATTER HOW DRUNK THEY ARE that they were about to

get married IN FRONT OF PEOPLE AND A PREACHER!

 

 And lastly, les us not forget about Jessica Simpson. While visiting the White

House she was introduced to Interior Secretary Gale Norton and said: “You

have done a nice job decorating the White House”  

 

 But the biggest exposer of idiocy is television. On TV we see so many people

doing or saying some of the dumbest things a human can imagine. I could write

all day on this subject but I will be nice. I will touch on a subject that has always

intrigued me when  I see it on TV. And that subject leads right into our next section

titled:

 

             THE WORD “DAREDEVIL” AND STUPIDITY

 

 I would now like to explain to you all my take on the word “Daredevil” and stupidity.

Let’s start by taking the word apart. DARE means you have the courage (Or you

have the stupidity) to do some crazy assed stunt. So when you decide to do some-

thing REALLY freakin nutty (Like the guys I saw on the show “REAL TV” that were

driving 2 cars side by side down the street at 35 miles-per-hour and one of them

gets real smart and wants to CLIMB OUT THE MOVING CAR HE WAS IN and to

CLIMB INTO the other car without stopping or slowing down. You don’t need me to

tell you where this CAL ended up)

 

 So when you do some crazy assed stunt and you want to play the part of a person

who is daring, you then are saying to THE DEVIL  “Look Mr. Devil, I am going to

do this crazy assed stunt. I am going to act like a JLJ and I and I DARE YOU to do

something about it. In other words, you are DARING THE DEVIL to stick his nose

in this stupid assed thing you are about to do. This is what the word “Daredevil”

means to me. And sometimes when you jack with the devil he may let you succeed

with your stupidity. But sooner or later when you jack with the devil, he is going to

jack you back. He will stick his nose in there and foul things up. And foul you up. 

 

 When I was young (In the 70’s) I used to love Evil Knievel. He was the best stuntman

ever (I thought). I used to love to watch The Wide World of Sports on ABC to see

what new motorcycle jump he was about to do. (Like the Snake River jump) To me

he was the greatest daredevil that ever lived. Now I think different.

 

Now I think he was a freakin nut.

 

Now I think that Evil dared the devil a few too many times and the devil answered his

dares. I recently saw a picture of him and read the short article about him. He was

saying how he was in so much pain all over his body and he has to take all kinds of

pills for the rest of his life. This was caused by him DARING THE DEVIL time and

time again. (Note: Evil Knievel died in 2007)

 

So what is the moral of all this?

 

Simple.

 

 Don’t be a freakin knucklehead and dare the devil.

 

 If you do and lose, you may end up in the media (In one form or another) as being an

idiot. Plus I may get to add you to my "FOUL BALLS" section.

 

 

 And TV exposes it all. The Media.

 

 The Media also exposed Paul Fernandez of Hunington Beach, California who got pulled

by a car with a rope while riding his bicycle.. He wanted to get up extra speed so that he

could go off a ramp and jump onto a low roof on the bike.. He hit the ramp after letting go

of the rope and instead of landing on the roof he hit the side of the building real hard and

 fell all the way back to the ground. He too dared the devil and lost. And got all jacked up

in the process.

 

In addition to all this, TV exposes how dumb people really are. On the television show “Street Smarts”, normal everyday people on the street are stopped and asked simple questions. Contestants at a TV studio make bets to see if the person on the street will answer the question right or wrong. While I was watching it one day, the host on the street asked a young lady who was the first president of the United States. (George Washington, of course). She then gave the answer “Abraham Lincoln!”    Or how about on “The Jenny Jones Show “ which ran through most of the 1990’s. Jenny used to have this invited guest host named Rude Jude who would ask people (Mainly beautiful women. Note to all you beautiful women: I am not calling you ALL dumb. Remember stupidity makes no distinction between pretty or ugly, smart or dense, rich or poor, etc.) easy questions.  On one show he asked a woman what northern country is right above the United States and she said “ Texas!”    Let’s add more to TV and stupidity. TV shows actually PAY people to be idiots. Proof of this is on MTV’s Jackass in which these men are actually paid to do some of the craziest, dumbest, and sometimes dangerous stunts. They even made a movie about the show. (Jackass: The Movie).  (Ok I gotta fess up. I had tears in my eyes for laughing so much at that movie. Guess I can’t say too much bad about the show. There’s a good chance I would do the same if MTV paid me to be an idiot too)    Then there is The Jerry Springer Show. I fid it hard to believe that people will actually come on that show and expose all their dirty secrets and lies in their lives. I have never seen more MAD's (Misfits And Dimwits) on one TV show than on Springer.    And if you do or say something stupid while caught on tape, you can be sure that there is a good chance that the world will know.  There are so many examples of this that I will not even bother to expand on the subject. Let’s just end this section with this warning to you all: Watch what you say or do. You may end up on TV as being a dimwit.
