This is from my latest Blog on Myspace.com...The following is my opinion alone! The picture below was taken by me a few days ago.

Would you mutilate a truck like these jokers did?

Okay I can MARGINALLY understand a Low Rider CAR...but making a pickup into a low-rider just defeats the whole purpose of having a truck to begin with.

Actually the #1 thing that makes me angry is stupid people. In traffic, in a mall, in a restaurant, at a movie, it doesn't matter. You see them everywhere. Stupid people. Not ignorant people, because ignorance suggests that the person just doesn't know, but can be taught if someone took the time, and they would probably learn from their mistakes and fail to repeat them.

Stupid people are ignorant people, who, even after they are taught the correct way to do something, they still just don't have the mental capacity to learn from their mistakes. Either that, or they are just too lazy to take the extra three seconds out of their life that it would require to be courteous to others. Stupid people make the same mistakes over and over again, they go and do things the wrong way. Not because they don't know better, but because it's easier for them to do the wrong thing. Over and over again. That's the difference between ignorance and stupidity. Ignorant people don't know, that's why they do stupid things. Stupid people know that what they are doing is stupid. They just prefer to do it that way.

Ignorance can be forgiven, stupidity can't. This makes stupid people lower on both the evolutionary ladder as well as a lesser specimen of the gene pool that makes up the human race.

Listed below you will find many examples of stupid people, as well as some other types of people that, while they cannot technically be classified as stupid, the world would be a much better place without them.

* People who run stop signs and look the other way.

* People who tap their brakes and roll through stop signs.

* People who follow other people through a stop sign (double go).

* People who hurriedly pull out directly in front of you and then go slower than you.

* People who pass you, pull in front of you, and then go slower than you.

* People who pull out into your lane of traffic when a free lane is available.

* People who toss trash out the window of a moving car (it's not 'cool'. No matter what age or grade you are in.)

* People with lots of money who think that the world revolves around them.

* People who drive in the left lane of the highway.

* Low Rider pickups and their owners.

* Anyone who wears pants whose leg holes are bigger than the waist.

* Anyone who wears their pants backwards, or lets their pants hang down so low, that you can see their underwear on purpose.

* People who crank their HUGE stereos in traffic or parking lots and think that I want to listen to the SAME thing that they are listening to..

* Slackers.

* Posers.

* Wannabes.

* People who don't use turn signals

* People who don't understand what "Right Turn On Red After Stop" means.

* Snobs.

* Complete strangers who think that I'm going to let them into MY house to talk to me about THEIR religion

* Anybody who tries to get me involved in some kind of pyramid get rich quick scheme (Amway, Primerica, NetCommerce, etc.)

* Rude or inconsiderate people (especially in traffic)

* People who think that they know everything.

* People who just won't shut up.

* Petty people.

* Nosey people.

* Anyone who drives while talking on a cellphone AND doesn't pay attention to the act of driving.

* People who think that they own the left lane of the highway.

* Drivers who tie up traffic because they don't know how to drive correctly.

* People who make up stuff just to sound important.

* People who ride right up on your bumper, whip around you, speed past you, pull right back in front of you, hit their brakes, their turn signal, and then take the turn off the highway that you were slowing down for anyway. And they think they're cool because they did it ... Couldn't they have waited three more seconds? Naw. That wouldn't have been cool to do.

* People who use the bed of their pickup truck as a trashcan and then empty that trashcan by letting the tail gate down and driving around at highway speeds.

* People who can't control their kids in public or can only do so by using physical punishment, shouting, or threats.

So according to that list, removal of those people would leave probably about a dozen or so people left in America. :lol:

Well, look at it this way...that's always better than wearing holes bigger than your waist in your bum area! :mwaha: :laugh: :mwaha:

Ah yes, the plumber look! :laugh:

Ahh...the good ol' Jevovah's Witnesses. ;)

I found a sure fire way to stop that from happening. Last time they came to my house and asked me if I was interested in reading their pamphlets and talking, I started twitching one eye, spasming my neck, and said:

"Suuuuuure....but I have to see your HEINY first!!!!"

They never came back. :D

When I first moved to Denver, I had Jehovah's Witnesses at my door EVERY week. Then a co-worker of mine told me, "next time they come knocking at your door, tell them you are Jewish" (even though I'm not). I did & they NEVER came back again. I don't know why...but I didn't care - it worked like a charm :D

Great list, Dio :thumb: I hate lowrider trucks and pants! :p

Great list :thumb: But before we discuss the list, I have this great work-at-home business oportunity for you. With very little up front cash, and all you have to do is recruit, oh, wait, nevermind. Have you read the bible lately? Oh, wait, nevermind again. I do wish that my loose pants would stop falling down while I am removing the springs from my tru... Strike three. right? :laugh:

I've actually done as George Carlin suggested...and out here in My nieghborhood at least...it does work...simply draw a ploice outline of a human body and throw a bunch of Jehovah's witness pamphlets around it (Gotta spatter the pamphlets with a little bit of red food coloring though).

I Saw this one dude yesterday who had the baggy pants and Undies showing...wish I had my digital camera on me then so I could post this losers image here....oh well! Lowrider Pickups are a collossal waste!

The last time a Jehovah's Witness came to my door I saw them through the peep hole and I purposely started drooling and rolling my eyes in the back of my head. A friend of mine who also a Jahovah's Witness said to me "that works everytime."
