Why is the world full of stupid people?
August 13th 2007 00:30
I have noticed recently that the world is full of stupid people. I'm not talking about the ones who can't count the correct change in the line at the supermarket but the ones who defy explanation. For example the couple who wanted to call their child "4real". Thankfully the NZ registry had the sense to say no.
So the father, who claims he's not a "quitter" (he may not have much upstairs but he's a not a quitter) decided not to go with an ordinary name but call the poor defenseless baby of all things "Superman". What did that poor child ever do to deserve such treatment? Superman? Out of all of the names out there which must number into the millions he can't find a name that would make the child feel good without him being laughed at for the rest of his life?
I saw recently on television where a man is suing a coffee chain because hot tea was spilt on him apparently because the lid wasn't on properly. If you aren't smart enough to check if the lids on properly then you get everything you deserve. That might sound bad enough but this mans wife is also suing because her husband can no longer perform his duties properly. My dear if you believe that a man who can't check if a lid is on properly was functioning at the best of his abilities then I'm sorry you got a bad deal.
We are something aren't we, when we can sue for $54 million over a pair of pants? I was quite happy when his case was thrown out of court. It meant that common sense (which doesn't appear to be so common these days) prevailed.
I suggest you keep watching because things are just starting to slide downhill where humanity is concerned. If there are aliens out there watching our every move they're more than likely sitting back and laughing at us (considering we very well may be the laughing stock of the universe) probably thinking that if this is who we are then we don't have very much going for us.
