Destroit Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Ha, that's funny. Someone here at work gave me a copy of that same list and I was going to post it here but forgot about it. I hope none of that is actually true, I was so upset I went out after reading it and ate a cheerleader...whole. One bite, that's how skinny she was too.
Gaf The Horse With Tears Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 OK The one about the motor home... i think we have a thread about that.. the guy sued the motor home company... and won. "Cruise Control" He thought it was like an auto pilot. the one with the colander (I thought I was the only person that still used that word) was on a late night show that used to play on Fox called America's Dumbest Criminals or something like that.
spacin Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Hopefully they won't breed. That's proly asking too much of them though. Props to the cops in #8 though. I thought that was pretty clever of them.
n0Mad Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Working retail I see people like that every day. I just want to smack them.
