    Default Stupid is as Stupid does


    Well I thought I would never see this. Yesterday in a construction zone a small pickup ran out of gas. I had

    to slow down to about 15 MPH because the Guy adding fuel from a five gallon can was encroaching in my

    lane. Guess what? As he was adding gas from the can he had a cigarette in his mouth. Hard to believe!

    What is really sad is that I am not as surprised as I should be.

    First - Don't try to light a cigarette when fueling your vehicle (unless you're using diesel).
    Second - Once you manage to set the fuel on fire - DO NOT remove the nozzle from your vehicle.
    Third - If your husband manages to set you on fire, DON'T RUN! You just make it worse. (Hard to remember when you're burning).

    I really believe we need to take down all the signs and remove all the safety labels and let Darwin take over. Population control solved. Stupid is supposed to hurt.

    When I see someone smoking and refueling, I go elsewhere or wait from a good distance. Gas fumes and fire are not anything to play around with.

    Y'all Ain't seen Nothing, Driving by a Mall one Day , there was a Lady sitting there smoking a cigarette, in her nose was a oxygen tube, and beside her on the bench, you guessed it, her tank, I slowed down, I didn't mean to be this cruel, at the time , but I did, I told her to use a gun, it would work faster, But if your going to be STUPID, your going to have to be Tough !!!

    And yes I've seen people smoking at the pumps, drove away and thought to myself , Hope no one gets hurt !!!! There are some stupid people in this world , I mean STUPID!!!



    Just my 2 cents worth , Midnightbreeze

    A few years ago a man was sitting on a small wall smoking , watching people walk back and forth.He was sitting there smoking with the tubes in the nose.
    Well guess what, it blew-up and killed him.
    The bottom line of this was he was siting in the front of the local HOSPITAL waiting for his Dr's appointment.

    How Ironic is that!!!
