Stupidity should hurt. Heres one that happened to me when I used to work at Sam's Club in the Cigarrette cage:

Guy walks up with his wife. (this was a few days after a law was passed in Colorado the nearly doubled the price of tobacco) The guy asks me for a roll of Copenhagen Snuff. I ring it up and it is almost 44 dollars. His wife says, "you need to stop chewing that stuff and switch to something like gum". Without missing a beat, or even flinching, the guy says "No, gum is bad for your teeth" I looked up to see if he was joking and he looked dead serious. His wife looked really embarrassed too. Good times.

I work at target, a little old asain woman comes up to me and asks
"how many feet is this"-hold a little shelving unit
I reply after look at the box which has demisnions on it"its 18"x24"x8"
she askes again "how many feet is this?" not making a motion with her hands to height.
I tell her it is 18 inchs tall.
she asks "is that less than two feet, my cabinents are two feet off the counter and I need something to fit there.
I smile and yes that is less than two feet. everytime I think I meet the dumbest person in the world I remember her.
if you know how big a foot is should you know inchs as well. and I edited the story for length as I tried to teach her that their are 12 inchs in a foot and she just couldnt get it. I HATE DUMB PEOPLE
I know my spelling sucks srry

I read this one somewhere - an elderly man goes into the hardware store searching for liquid septic tank unclogger. He is in the aisle reading all the labels to make sure they are safe for the newer plastic septic tanks. After reading several labels he couldn't find any warnings. He casually takes one to the cashier and asks if it was safe for plastic septic tanks. The cashier glances at the bottle and tells him yup, sure is, without a flinch. The man felt the cashier was blowing him off and asked angrily how he knew without even reading the label. The cashier tells him the bottle is plastic.

When I was in 2nd gradeI thought it would be smart to see how hot a cast iron skillet is 30mins after it's taken off the stove...2nd degree burns and alot of pain later I thought I learned
1 year later...I stick my finger in a toaster to get a piece of toast out
2 months later...I wonder how hot the flame of a lighter gets
2 years later...I wonder if a car cigerette lighter can burn you
Various times in my life...is the water warm enough yet...is it cooled down yet(always burned me)
Yesterday...I wonder just how hot the disc brakes are if the water is boiling off them as I was the car...I stuck my finger on the pad...that hurt bad
I think I finally learned...BTW I am now a sophomore in college.

It's like getting diet soda with your fastfood combo....

I swear this is 100% true:

I was teaching a special ed class for 'behavior problem' kids a couple of years ago at a high school...this girl was being refered into the class for fighting, etc., and she came into the classroom on the first day with a bit of an attitude...she was trying to justify why she shouldn't be put into a special ed class, and she said "I'm smart though, I took an IQ test and I practically passed it."

I had to turn around and contain myself for a good 5 seconds before I could carry on a conversation. Classic.

where to start,

first, my dads buddy #1 takes and empty beer can and fills it with gas then pours it on a fire to get it going, later fire dies down and buddy #2 then opens a brand new beer and pours it on the fire putting it out when asked why he did it he says "but georges beer burned" he was serious too

second, my ex picked up a trailer hitch ball, and says "this sure is a heavy door knob"

third, my friend and i drove past a seafood store says "seafood? that just sounds nasty" i asked her if she like fish and shrimp and she said yes i love shrimp, i then told her what do you think that is? and explained what seafood was and she just dropped her head.

fourth, remember the lorana bobbet girl who cut her husbands... well you know off, my gma said "how did she get through the bone?" my mom with out missing a beat said "well duh mom it retracts" and i think to this day gma is happy with that answer.

fifth, with jeep burried about 2 feet in the mud with winch around a tree guy walks up and asked "re you stuck?" so i did the heres your sign thing and said "nope just trying to move that tree a lill closer to the hole"
