Stupid

[azureline**]

I have always tried not to use that word, as the definition can sometimes show as lack of intelligence (which is not the fault of the unintelligent person)

In fact my grandchildren think it is a naughty, bad word.

I find myself muttering it more and more lately though, one day I may actually say it out loud. Some of these words I would never use.

If I kick my toe because I didn't have shoes on, I would think how stupid I was....................if I put washing in the machine and forget to turn it on.................etc.

Yeah pepe it happens when your not familiar with the local gentry. But I wouldn't say I'm stupid as you suggest. I just left the door open for you that's all.

I'm not known for using the word 'stupid' or 'fool' very often.  But, if I wait long enough someone else will use it.  🙂

Stupid people think it makes a real difference if you vote for one mainstream party or the other.

It doesn't.

Look at who funds the parties. Look at who contributes to their election campaigns. (don't count the under-the-table out and out bribes)

You think they're going to spend large amounts of money and expect nothing back in return?

We have the best government which money can buy. And Money buys quite a lot if a person knows how to spend it in the right places.

Proportional representation. hhhh. Those who are represented the best are those who can afford to spend the greatest proportion, buying influence.
