If You Die Because Your Gas Pedal Gets Stuck, You Deserve to Die


I’m sure you’re aware of the recent Toyota and Lexus recall, because the accelerator gets stuck, which is a hazard. Yes, this is not very safe, but if you die in a crash because of this, you’re an absolute Darwin Award winning dumbass. Read on…

Mechanics 101, people. Your accelerator gets stuck – what do you do? Put the stupid ass car in neutral you dunces! It’s not rocket science. The engine will continue revving, but it’s not in gear and it will no longer accelerate. Then you simply put on the hazards, pull over to the side of the road, unstick the pedal, and carry on. This isn’t the friggin space shuttle.

I give this scenario to a few people, and many say – oh shut the car off. I mean – that kind of works, but then you lose power steering and power brakes, which can be dangerous if you’re a weak ass. And on some old cars, the wheel locks and then you’re screwed. Now listen to this stupidity:

What you don’t do is call 911 and panic like a fucking idiot. That gets you killed. Rather than worrying about stopping your vehicle, you pull out a cell phone, distract yourself and take the time to make a call. Are you a dumbass? Anyone who cannot follow one of the two simple procedures above should not be driving. This idiot is now dead. That’s fine, because he was a moron, but here’s what’s worse: he also killed his wife, daughter and brother-in-law. To make matters even worse, he was a California highway patrol officer! Are you serious? You’re supposed to know about highway safety, and you’re over there going 125MPH and can’t figure out how to stop. The 911 dispatch says “and you don’t have the ability to turn the vehicle off or anything?” (first off, that wasn’t the best advice, but that’s fine). Stuff like this makes me rage when I read it.

Edit: Crayzeesheep just made a great point: Where are the brother-in-law and wife during this issue? You think one of those fools would think of a solution? there are three minds working on this problem, and no one can solve it. Jeez

Don’t get me wrong. I know people panic. I do understand that if you’re in traffic, pulling out of a driveway or are on a local road, it may be hard to react in time to stop the car. But the worst that can happen is a pain in the ass crash. It’s probably not that fast and you’ll live. In that case, you’re forgiven. But if you’re on a highway and manage to accelerate to 125MPH, you sir are a dumbass and had plenty of time to solve your problem


You Are Educated, Now Act that Way


I was about to go to bed since I need to get back on normal time, but became enraged when I was browsing through a certain social media website and saw someone typing LYk dIsSSS oMGGggggg!!!!!1 What enraged me more was that the person was a well educated, college graduate. Yes folks, this is the type of trash that is getting hired. I ranted about this back in 2005. While reviewing that post, I realized that I was talking about high school girls st the time. Yes, it still makes you look dumb, but looking back, I can cut them some slack. The moment I saw a college grad do that, my blood boiled at our ignorant society and utter stupidity.

Years ago, I wrote a program that does that to a computer. It spams the capslock key on and off so that the typing lOoKS LIkE tHIs. It is a prank and is designed to piss people off. By no means is this supposed to be used for any other purpose and the fact that people go out of their way to do this is sickening.

Apparently, people go out of their way to do this. Does it make you cooler? Please comment and let me know what the purpose of this is. Enlighten me. The only thing I can think of is that it makes you look like a fucking dumbass, so stop doing it. I hope your future employers read it it and not hire you due to your flagrant stupidity and feeble grasp of the English language.


You’re Dumb. Don’t Teach Here


I have had it with ignorant professors. It really pisses me off that a highly qualified, extremely expensive institute of higher learning employs professors who either can’t write or speak English or don’t know basic history.

Professor 1 teaches an international human resource management course. She has no clue about history. On two occasions, this woman stated that three atomic bombs were dropped in Japan to end WWII. Please refresh my memory as to what the third one was, I’d like to know. Second, we were talking about imperialism and she asked us which areas in the present day US were territories of Spain. A student replied with Florida and she immediately dismissed that fact and called on someone else, who said Texas. Um, moron – they’re both correct – don’t say that a student (she was pretty hot actually, I’m surprised she was smart) is wrong when he/she is not. This fool gave us nine assignments and graded one of them. How are we supposed to know how we’re doing?

Professor 2 teaches history. She never uses a subject when she sends email. Use a subject – that’s what it’s for. I am OCD with sorting things and don’t want to guess what each of your poorly written messages are about. Second, when you write an email the following bullets demonstrate improper grammar and are unacceptable:

  • To prepare your middle-term exam, you need to familiar yourself with […]”
  • “Why did the Jesuits to to Asia to covert people into Christianity?”
  • “We studies global interactions during the 16th and 17th centuries.”

These people have PhDs dammit. They’re supposedly brilliant. Proofread your shit and check your facts before you make yourself sound like dumb. I wouldn’t hand in a paper like that. Don’t get me wrong, these are lovely, wonderful people and are really nice. But I have no patience for stupidity.


OMG Severe Weather Alert


This is where I get enraged. I hate over-exaggeration and utter stupidity. The Weather Channel has a habit of doing that: “zomgz guys, blizzard warning (aka one inch of snow). Stockpile food, buy blankets, buy shovels, get generators. Prepare for the end of the world.” Chill, it’s an inch of snow, it’ll melt tomorrow. That was two years ago. The exaggeration has gotten much worse, I am not even making this up, but this was a severe alert I clicked from their Google weather gadget. I’ll tell you what’s severe: the amount of work that needs to be done to prevent this stupidity:

 

They put out a severe weather alert for light rain and above freezing temperatures. It’s not even a downpour or icy roads. Of course the road will get wet, it’s rain – morons. Coming next year: “Severe weather alert: Partly cloudy. Hey you never know…” You lost all your credibility, go away I’ll do my own weather from now on.


No Patience for Stupidity


I woke up this morning after a 2 hour, disturbed sleep (because I have way too much on my mind this week) to go to a class. I have a few spare minutes before I head out so I throw on some TV and Fox 61 news. Being from around New York (where we have legitimate news broadcasts), I usually don’t have access to this inferior Fox feed.

So the meteorologist comes on to do the weather and he’s recapping the 2008 hurricane season, stating that it’s officially over and gave some general information about it. Then he goes on to make a fool out of himself and says (I quote directly, no bull) “Well hurricane season is over. Meteorologically speaking, today’s the first day of winter.” Okay buddy, I don’t know where you got your degree from, but since when is December 1st the first day of winter? I think it’s common knowledge (and anyone in an 8th grade earth science class can back me up on this) that the winter solstice does not begin until December 21st. Actually I lied, people are generally ignorant with science. That’s fine. But you are a meteorologist, probably have a degree in this area and are on television. Get your facts right. I have no patience for this stupidity to be broadcast on the air. This is why the majority of people in this country are stupid. This was an absolute outrage and set me into a sour mood learning that these so called “professionals” have no idea what they are talking about and are spewing ignorance to the public.

So this other time, I’m in Bridgeport picking up some food and some other stupid moron is like. “Man I can’t wait until January 1st until we gots our new president.” Go pick your brain out of your teef, put it back in your head and learn something about the country you live in. I just have no comment. I bet there are morons out there who, if you go around asking who the president is, will reply “Obama.” I’ll be moving to my own island nation soon. Women (smart ones) and a high speed internet connection will be readily available, there will be no copyright law and we secede from the United States of Ignorance.
