  • Stupidity - Doing the same thing and...

    ... expecting a different result. Allow me to elaborate.

    Let's say you just made yourself a fake parking permit.

    Now, let's say you use that fake permit to park at your buddies apartment and party it up.

    Now, let's say as you stumble out of said apartment at 2am, after much merry making, and see a tow truck with all it's work lights on, it's tow apparatus dropped from the "stow" position to the "load" position, sizing up YOUR car for a tow, well, I'd assume the proper response would be to assume your fake didn't pass muster and was spotted for the forgery that it was.

    The big day-glo pink envelope on your windshield emblazoned with the word "PARKING VIOLATION" on the outside, with the little $15 ticket tucked inside, citing your car for "Violation 103:01 - Permit Tampered/Fake" could only have made this clearer, had you still been a bit confused.

    Thanks to you having gazelle-like speed on foot when sufficently provoked, you managed to run to the car before it actualy got loaded, so you were allowed to reatreat without paying us a drop fee.

    So in essence, you should have left the parking lot that night fully aware that you had escaped a tow by mere seconds, and that as good as you THOUGHT it was, your fake permit had been a total and absolute failure in it's first trial run.

    So, prey tell

    WHY DID YOU GO BACK THERE THE VERY NEXT DAY, AND PARK IN THE SAME SPOT? WITH THE SAME FAKE PERMIT?????

    I wanna know because I'm going off duty for the next few days, and I won't be at the shop when you come in to pick the car up.

      Sounds like the kind of person who'd keep driving to the bar with his license revoked after one DWI too many to me.

        Ah, but you see, it wasn't the same fake permit.

        He cunningly went back to the drawing board and created a new one - one so diabolically clever that no mere mortal could ever tell the difference.

        Stifling a maniacal guffaw, he admired his work, basking in its sheer perfection.

        But, thanks to the universal law that causes every evil genius to have one small, nay insignificant flaw, he forgot to replace the obvious fake tag with his new and improved version before driving off.

          More likely it never occurred to him that the same people tend to work each day and that they'd recognize the doofus-mobile in a snap. After all, I'm sure there's another identical vehicle that parks somewhere in the same 10 block radius. So even if he parks in the exact same lot and the exact same space with the exact same fake permit, surely someone will think it's a totally different car.

            Or, he had already forgotten about the narrowly averted tow as soon as you drove away.
            To seek it with thimbles, to seek it with care;
            To pursue it with forks and hope;
            To threaten its life with a railway share;
            To charm it with forks and hope!

                  Hey, if cutting your arm off to get away from a boulder gets you a book deal I say the mouse is on to something.

                  I have a soft spot for animals. It's human stupidity I can't stand.

                    Well, this is true. It's just gross to find a chewed-off foot in the hallway...nowhere near a mouse trap. So I think he chewed his foot off then decided it was a snack?

                          Funny, the title of this thread is also the same definition of insanity. Guess it works both ways :P

                            Argabarga: Just how drunk was this guy, anyway? Is it possible that he just didn't remember the incident with the tow truck? (And if he was that drunk, what was he doing behind the wheel in the first place?)

                              I think he decided that you "let him get away with it" so why not do it again?

                              Or he's just stupid. Yeah, that's probably it.
