know anyone who needs a sign?
By Andy Rooney....
Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm Stupid"._ That
way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It
would be like, "Excuse me...oops...never mind, didn't see your sign".
It's like before my wife and I moved. Our house was full of boxes and there
was a U-Haul truck in our driveway. My neighbor comes over and says, "Hey,
you moving?" "Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or twice a week to see
how many boxes it takes. Here's your sign."
A couple of months ago I went fishing with a buddy of mine, we pulled his
boat into the dock, I lifted up this big ol'stringer of bass and this idiot
on the dock goes, "Hey, y'all catch all them fish:" "Nope. Talked 'em into
giving up. Here's your sign".
Last time I had a flat tire, I pulled my truck into one of those
side-of-the-road gas stations. The attendant walks out, looks at my truck,
looks at me, and I swear he said, "Tire go flat"? I couldn't resist. I said,
"Nope. I was driving around and those other three just swelled right up on
me. Here's your sign".
We were trying to sell our car about a year ago. A guy came over to the
house and drove the car around for about 45 minutes. We get back to the
house, he gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the exhaust pipe, then
says, "Darn that's hot!" See, if he'd been wearing his sign, I could have
stopped him.
I learned to drive an 18-wheeler in my days of adventure. Wouldn't you know,
I misjudged the height of a bridge. The truck got stuck and I couldn't get
it out, no matter how I tried. I radioed in for help and eventually a local
cop shows up to take the report. He went through his basic
questioning..okay..no problem. I thought for sure he was clear of needing a
sign..until he asked, "So, is your truck stuck:" I couldn't help myself! I
looked at him, looking back at the rig and then back to him and said, "No,
I'm delivering a bridge..here's your sign".
I stayed late at work one night and a co-worker looked at me and said, "Are
you still here?" I replied, "No, I left about 10 minutes ago. Here's your
sign."
Anybody you know need a sign today? Send this to all of your friend. The
next time someone says something stupid, ask them where their sign is.
Link to my inspiration!
