HOW DO THESE PEOPLE SURVIVE?

Well, I don\'t know. If you breed them under controlled circumstances you could create and army of disposable idiots.

Quite true....that might be the only thing they\'d be good for. But then again, they\'d probably kill the people on their \'side\'.

I\'m just glad you never read it already kopking... :)
The best part is that they all are true stories.

I have read a couple of those before. The best one IMO was the credit card "thingy" one. That was good for a laugh or two.;)
-
Being a stupid person myself I find this thread offensive.
People don\'t understand that it\'s not really our fault, stupidity is a disease. Just like alcoholism or drug addiction, there\'s no cure. :(

Here\'s another that happened to my friend who works at a computer technical service desk.
One day, he gets a call from a lady that says that she\'s having problems installing the network printer. My friend asked the lady if the computer sees the printer, and her reply was "Yes it\'s should see it, because I turned the monitor towards the printer and I removed everything that would block its sight"
At this point my friend politely told the lady to put the computer back in the box it came in, and ship it back to the manufacturer\'s. The lady asks, "is it that bad?" and my friend replied, "Yes, you\'re too stupid to have a computer"

stupid people rely on smart people thats how they survive oh yes I would know
