Well, well, stupid never quits, and I won’t either. We’ve got a cornucopia of idiocy today, and some of them are real doozies.
Zheleznovodsk, a city in Russia, unveiled a large, 800 pound monument to the enema. Let me repeat that – the ENEMA. Yes, here we have a city that feels it is best represented by a device you insert into the anus to cleanse the colon. Debuting at the Mashuk-Akva Term spa, the bronze statue was hailed by the spa’s director as, “almost a symbol of our region”. So raise your glasses and tip your hats to the dirty anus capital of the world, Zheleznovodsk.
Stupid Level – 8.5 – When you define your hometown as a great place for the ass in need of cleansing, you’ve pretty much given up on the entire concept of dignity.
In spoiled brat news, a 12 year old Canadian girl has sued her father to reverse a common punishment, grounding, calling it a “cruel and unusual” punishment. But that’s not the stupid part. No sir – the court ruled IN FAVOR of the girl, preventing the father from barring his daughter from a school field trip. Yes, Quebec set a precedent where any idiot kid that gets grounded can simply take their parents to court to have it overruled. I remember when grounding actually meant something; we were meant to learn a lesson. Obviously, there is very little learning going on in Canada.
Stupid Level – 9 – The Canadian courts have brought the inevitable tidal wave of whiney teenagers on themselves. I’m thinking MTV’s going to try to make a reality show out of all this, in the vein of My Super Sweet Sixteen. If that happens, I’m boosting this to an 11. Canada, this happened in Quebec – it’s not too late to save yourself some major headaches and grant them the independence they’ve been pining for.
And wrapping up This Week in Stupid, we’ve got a moron in Terre Haute, Indiana, who robbed a little girl’s lemonade stand of $17.50. Better yet, the girl chased the 18-year-old suspect, saw him go into a house, and then called the police, who arrested the callous crook. That’s the first step for any master criminal, right? I think that’s how Al Capone started, except Capone was six.
Stupid Level 10 - It takes an especially brilliant criminal to rob a kid’s lemonade stand. This guy knew where the real money was.
