[Humour] What is the most stupid thing the Public have done

[Westdene Seagull]

Believing we are the 51st state of the USA by celebrating Halloween, making school proms a thing whereby every child has to arrive in a stretch limo, and continually using American spellings.

While I don't bother with halloween, the Americans nicked the idea from the Celts. So those that celebrate it aren't neccessarily following the States.

Exactly what I was going to say. I'll add in pickup trucks on this side of the Atlantic too. The dumbest vehicles.

Try watching, say, a NFL game on a US channel (not Sky). Then you’d understand that there is a genuine need for these vehicles. Every American male actually has a cowboy hat permanently grown into their head from birth, and spends their weekends driving up a perilous mountain path and through a raging river while wearing flannel shirts in order to wrestle wild elk, chop trees with their bare hands and crack open a Coors Light while also saluting the flag and our military heroes. So they really do need these kind of cars. Honest.

"We know better than you, you don't know anything because you are old" being spouted by some spotty 16 year old, squeezing zits whilst waiting for his balls to drop and grow hairs on them, over some social media platform with hundreds of thousands of likes.

Albion Media Team: "That's very good Jack, but couldn't you just say something like 'I learn from Milner every day'"

And American spellings are actually English spellings if you go back far enough (e.g to Shakespeare for example)

Burning down their own town!

On a similar line, owning a Range Rover when you live and drive in a city. There's a reason they're called cuntmobills in the WS household.

I can remember Alexei Sayle many years ago on a mock yummy mummy voice:
”oh I do think four wheel drive is so important when driving down to Sainsbury’s”

Stupidly not reading the rules of the thread properly, just too dumb to understand 'political' (as in no political stuff).

The irony.

Going on walks in some of our beautiful countryside then choosing to festoon the hedgerows and trees with neatly tied plastic bags of dog shit. Thanks for that.

(Although I appreciate that is the preserve of certain members of the dog-owning community, rather than the population at large).

Ah, but how do you know it’s dog shit?

 

[el punal]

Make endless puns about fish!

Cod help us!

Ah! You’ve piked my interest.

 

[Somethingdean]

Getting massive dogs with bear trap jaws and flat faces they can't control and pleading ignorance when said dogs subsequently take chunks out of some labradoodle down the park.

 

[GT49er]

The irony.

No, just apposite.

 

[WATFORD zero]

believing it is balance to have an expert on tv with someone who is rent a gob opinion.

THIS

So when only a complete moron would argue against something so obvious, they put a complete moron on to provide 'balance'

 

[Taybha]

At one point in the history of mankind a simple but genius TV advert in the 70s convinced the civilised world that wiping ones arse with Izal toilet paper could kill bacteria and germs living on the shit that said bog roll failed to wipe away,mainly due to it being made of glass.

[dejavuatbtn]

not screamed enough about Smart motorways
allowed the local council to ruin what was once a lovely town

 

[Cordwainer]

Being interviewed on TV in the town/village/estate they live saying something along the lines of ‘this sort of thing doesn’t happen here..’ in relation to a question about exactly that sort of thing that has just happened there.

 

[Lethargic]

Supporting Palace.
"Supporting" any of the Rich 6 without ever being near their stadium

 

[beorhthelm]

those dismissing tabloids as being bias and manipulative, then use twitter to guide opinions of news and events.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

No politics.........?


Hmmm..... borderline. Defo no cigar though!

What about a No6?
