A journey into Stupid

[marty]

Yesterday was idiot day. Balls to the walls idiocy. Here:

M: moron. Different moronic conversations seperated by space.

M: (on the phone) Hey, can you guys tell me if you have Resident Evil 4 for the PS2?
Me: Hold on one second, let me check.
M: Okay, thanks for your help! -click-
Me:

M: -holding up a case with a gigantic $39.99 promotional sticker on the front- How much is this?

M: -pointing to the label and reading the price silently to herself before she looks at me- How much is that?

(Noting here that our store is located across the parking lot from Walmart, and that you have to pass the Walmart and all its signs to get to our store)
M: Can you tell me how to get to Walmart?

M: -pointing to our sign that says, "Wiis now in stock!"- So do you guys have Wiis in stock?

AND the kicker, the one that made me want to just give myself a lobotomy:

M: So I read online that you can't steal cars in the new grand theft auto, is that true?
Me: No man, someone was probably just trying to mess with people.
M: Well I don't believe you, I get all of my info off the net.
Me:

The truth is out there, somewhere... but just not there where that customer looked

What is it with teh Internet being the source of all truth and wisdom nowadays?

But I read it on Wikipedia . . . that means it's true.

I think so, because I feel a whole hell of a lot dumber than I did a day ago.

Of course it does.

Apathy, is your comic strip based on a store that begins with an M, by any chance? Because my uniform definitely consists of a red polo, khakis, and a nametag with my name/store name/I Can Help!, and the managers definitely wear blue shirts.

To the OP: I can't believe someone actually thought that the next GTA wouldn't involve car theft...

Yes. Yes it is.

Read some of GK's and Phone Jockey's posts.

while it is possible, as becky points out, we don't want this to happen, simply because we'd possess their level of intelligence.

i prefer to keep my brain as intact as possible; helps me to cope better.

[Dr. Cox] So, rather than do chemotherapy you've decided you want to cure your cancer by eating raw onions because you read it on Wikipedia? [/Dr Cox]

I truely believe that stupidity is contageous and intelligence is not. I keep telling my supervisor that we need to start getting hazzard pay due to the amount of stupidity we deal with. No luck so far.
