The temptation was too great. I have to disregard your request for disregard.

If I don't know what I am supposed to disregard, how do I know if I am disregarding it?

How can you be an idiot if you subsequently answered your own question.  Isn't that a form of brilliance?

Hi. My name is Rick, and I am an idiot!

I told my wife that the dress she was wearing was making her butt look an axehandle wide.

That is because of the 'higher power'. She knows murder will get her talked about in the community!

Sounds familar, I told my girlfriend that getting her hair cut made her butt grow by 2 inches.

maybe we are all such idiots that we lack the capacity to know we are. So those saying they are idiots are actually the least idiotic as they at least can comprehend that they are.

Well if you guys said those things, then you just may be bigger idiots than me. I did not think that was possible.

Yep I am an idiot.  A staring at the monitor drooling idiot. 

But it is not my fault.  Every time I sit down to play this game I get this idiotic stare, my mouth opens, my tongue rolls out the side {Paramedics call this being positive for Q sign} and I begin to drool.

My wife confirms I am an idiot when she sees this......."Seriously!  Are you an Idiot?.

There's a classic scene between "Blondie" and Tuco in The Good, The Bad and the Ugly with this sort of exchange.

How about theses...

A wise man writes down what he thinks, a stupid man forgets what he thinks, a complete idiot punishes himself for what he thinks.
All men make mistakes, but only an idiot persists in his error.
Set up your command so that any idiot can run - because sooner or later, an idiot is going to run it.
A dreamer, a thinker, a speculative philosopher...or, as his wife would have it, an idiot.


And my personal favorite, because it applies to me so very well...

Just about the time your certain you are a genius is when you find out your actually an idiot.

I wish to add my name to the rolls, but first an entry question...

If I'm not a criminal, and I'm not a politician, and I enjoy WitP/AE - I think I'm just misunderstood...
Therefore I'm an idiot because I really dont know what the H*** is going on, right?

That is correct.

Yep, that seems to neatly sum up my life.
