On stupid people

We see them every day, and usually we make fun of them.

They’re the stupid. The daft. The incompetent. The people who can’t seen to find their way out of a wet paper bag.

Some examples:

People looking for a job application for Target or Walmart (I misspelled that on purpose; if you’re really curious, ask me why, but not in comments) and can’t comprehend the simple fact that the applications simply are not online.

The people so high on methamphetamine they apparently didn’t realize they were smoking right in front of a police station.

The stupidity of government officials and the stupidity of phone companies.

I could go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. But I won’t.

The question of the day is: How do we make people less stupid? Is it even possible?

What’s wrong with our world, that so many people live their daily lives in a fog of stupidity?
