I'm sarcastic and have a smart-*** attitude.  It's a natural defence against drama, bullshit and stupidity.

Starting to realize that the dumbest thing I hear is the daily new thread titled  "Am I a good ROTP candidate"?  :threat:

"What's the cost to ship a CE738A#BGJ?"  (I know what it is, but where do you want it to go?)

My reply: "Eleventy-two dollars plus a nickel."

Came across this gem today. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/9027394/France-plans-Napoleonland.html

"Other curious potential attractions include a ski run through a battlefield "surrounded by the frozen bodies of soldiers and horses" and a recreation of Louis XVI being guillotined during the revolution – the precursor to Napoleon’s rise to power.

The French often seem to overlook the fact that Napoleon lost in the end...

As for major displays on Napoleon's losses?  That's like Disneyland putting one on where the crowds get to watch Bugs Bunny kick Mickey's butt (which he so totally could)!

Not so much heard as read:

SeaWorld sued over 'enslaved' killer whales

Five killer whales have been named as plaintiffs in a court case which argues they deserve the same constitutional protection from slavery as humans.

I'd prefer that the PETA people confer with the killer whales - that would be amusing.

Even better, they should dress as their favourite mascot - a seal (synthetic fur of course - like a plastic food wrapper).

i find that the dumbest thing i heard today or any day at that are the people who come on to the forums and type a really long and complciated sentence or querie in such a way that as you are reading it you slowly begin to realise there are no commas or periods and then your lungs almost burn from the fact that the writer has not grammtically instructed you to breathe by using those literary devices and i find that its a really fascinating thought that you 'run out of breath' from simply reading a very enlongated run-on sentence.
