Re: Stupid

I always told my students that there was no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid answers.

Yes, I do stupid things occasionally; usually when I'm doing something and not concentrating on the job in hand.

Re: Stupid

There are some good ones on the link below, one that caught my attention and is probably more relevant to today is this one – "Technology is getting smarter and smarter: smartphones, smartwatches, smart homes … . Only people remain stupid no matter what. – Anna LeMind."

This one comes a close second though – "Maybe if we tell people the brain is an app, they’ll start using it. – Unknown."

Re: Stupid

Stupid.


Getting a fixed penalty notice for breaking rules.

Brecon Beacons.

Dyfed-Powys Police said one man had driven from Hertfordshire to walk up Pen-y-Fan, while a minibus of mixed households had travelled to the area from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.

Nobody can plead ignorance.

Re: Stupid

I do not consider myself stupid, but I do admit I sometimes do stupid things.

I think this probably applies to many other people as well.

Re: Stupid

I'm exceptionally stupid when attempting to understand some pretty basic things in life that others seem able to master without difficulty. On the other hand I consider myself a talented writer whereas my pals all say they would struggle to put together a few paragraphs of anything. So - all in all - I'm going for stupid because practical tasks are important to life. Writing, not so much.
