I Can't Believe

I have often commented, "I can’t believe that someone would be that stupid?" Well, I give up, I surrender, I can believe people will and do almost anything stupid. 
There are thousands or maybe millions of examples of things that people do that make you think, how stupid is that? The thousands or millions don’t include things politicians do - or the people that vote them into office.

Over the years, I have done a few stupid things. There are those that think everything I do is stupid. Stupid is defined by Webster as "given to unintelligent decisions or acts."

I remember a story about a fellow that lost a wheel from his vehicle in front of a mental institution. The lug nuts had come off and therefore the wheel fell off. He was at his wits end on what to do, when a resident looking through the fence offered, "take one lug nut off each of the three remaining wheels and put the wheel back on your vehicle." The man exclaimed, "that’s a great idea! I can’t believe you are locked away when you have such reasoning." The resident replied, "I am in here for being crazy, not stupid."

Why do people do stupid things? If you find out the answer, you will become a wealthy person, either by taking advantage of others or by selling a cure all.

Don’t try the cure on me. It won’t work.

Sometimes I do stupid things just to see what happens. At other times, I do stupid things so I can fit in.
