Stupid is.....

[virgo]

Ok, let's start a thread about some of the stupid things that people do.....

He tells the kids to grow a set of ...... and then provides them with a visual. Must have been a pretty "proud" man.

People never cease to amaze me. I bet those boys were shocked and have nightmares about that. That was not appropriate behavior for a coach but I have heard of worse in college.

Wasn't it a coach somewhere that a calf castrated in front of his team to shock them or intimidate them?

That team must not be doing well and those players either.

And then you have those morons who throw beer cans out the window and they hit the window of a police car....

hmm I was just thinking the other day of starting a thread about "air head" moments... don't know if it would fit on this thread though. I myself am guilty (VERY guilty) of speaking without thinking and end up saying quite stupid things.

Glad I don't/didn't play football. Don't care to see the coaches' manhood!

It could fit here, I think :)

Jackie Sherrill and Miss St.

Sherrill also achieved notoriety by castrating a bull during a team practice as a motivational technique prior to a game versus Texas. It worked, as unranked Mississippi State beat the #13 ranked Longhorns.

Here are some more funnies:

I personally like the one where the drunk driver, when asked by the cop what he's had to drink, says "What didn't I have?"

Too funny.

They say that making up is hard to do

Perhaps a 21-year-old Neosho man, arrested recently in West Bend and accused of disorderly conduct, should have stuck with the old chocolate-and-flowers standby.

Instead, he told police, he went to an ex-girlfriend's apartment in the 100 block of N. University Drive in West Bend around 10 p.m. Jan. 1 and slapped her in the face.
According to police reports, he also damaged a closet door, computer and cell phone and killed fish in an aquarium by pouring in dish soap into the water.
When the woman ran from the apartment toward her car, he pushed her against it and stole her keys, police reported.
The reason he'd shown up in the first place? The man told police that he had gone to the woman's apartment in an attempt to reunite with her.
Who's your daddy?

The fact that a 21-year-old Racine man is accused of hitting the mother of his child in the face may be shocking. But it may not be the most shocking aspect of this case.
The man was arrested Dec. 26 on charges of possession of crack cocaine, battery to a peace officer, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct/domestic in the 100 block of W. State St. in Burlington.
He had run away from the encounter with the woman but was found on Kane St., where he fought with and injured an officer during a struggle, police say.
And one more thing: The 19-year-old woman, who said the man was the father of her child, told police she didn't know his last name.
She was arrested on an outstanding warrant.
Dine-and-dash.com

Five people put a high-tech spin on the dine-and-dash in Wauwatosa recently.
The five ate dinner with a group of nine others at Red Lobster, 2801 N. Mayfair Road, but left without paying their $87 bill at 10:42 p.m. Dec. 16.
When police showed up and questioned those who were still dining, they said they didn't know the people who left.
The remaining diners said they thought the departed group heard about the dinner, part of a birthday party, because the invitation had been posted online.
The remaining nine paid the bill for their own dinners and were told not to come back.
Cleaning up evidence

Stealing is dumb.
Stealing from your boss is really dumb.
When you work for the police department, and you are stealing . . . well, you get the picture.
A 45-year-old woman hired as a contract cleaner was arrested on charges of theft Dec. 11 after police say she took a digital audio recorder from the Elm Grove Police Department's dispatch center, at 13600 Juneau Blvd.
At least she'll be familiar with the device if there comes a time to record a confession.
Lipstuck

A 52-year-old Eagle woman forgot one thing when she tried to pin a crime on a man she was pulled over with: Most guys don't wear lipstick.
A 40-year-old Honey Creek man was arrested Dec. 23 on Jefferson St. at Dodge St. in Burlington on charges of operating while intoxicated, with two prior convictions, operating after revocation, open intoxicants and an outstanding warrant for operating while intoxicated.
Two open cans of beer were in the car. When asked if she'd been drinking, the female passenger told police her ride was drinking both beers.
After lipstick was found on one can, the woman changed her story and admitted that beer was hers.
She was arrested on a charge of having open intoxicantsin a car. There is no law against being a bad liar.
Double-crossed?

A cross-dressing man tried to return a $148 dress without a receipt at the Mayfair Boston Store on Dec. 11, employees told police - the same guy, they think, who stole two purses worth $98 later that day.

NOTE to men:

Obviously, this is not how to reunite with a woman :)
