Moronic thing to do

Stupid thing to do, for the reasons cited by the announcers.

Having said that, there are 10 times the number of people in the US than in Canada.

Therefore, 10 times the number of morons, 10 times the number of geniuses, 10 times the number of great guys, 10 times the number of losers, you get the idea.

Hey Hoser, how's it goin', eh?

IF you assume that there is the same RATIO of morons to non-morons in the Great White North as there is in the USA.

Once again, I detail an event, and you turn it into some kind of judgment of something or someone. Follow closely now:

It is an account of an incident that is indicative of how such an offender is sometimes handled. I have stated no opinion about whether it's smart, stupid, right, wrong, good or bad.

Do you live in the real world? Do you understand crime and punishment, and more importantly, big-city crime and punishment?

Why would you risk seeming this naive to a public forum by asking this kind of question?

I don't know whether to laugh out loud or roll my eyes.

And where exactly did I say that you supported this beating? I must have missed that. Please don't be so quick to assume that every disagreement is a personal attack and to respond in kind.

You are another person who is far too quick to use the word attack. Can't you find another word in this vast and magnificent language to describe my reaction to your latest demonstration of obtuseness? When I feel "attacked," you'll know it.

I feel differed with. That's a long way from "attacked." Look up attack.

It was a World Series. 1992.

I bet there are bone heads in every stadium, in every sport, and of every nationality.

I can't find the clip but what about where the fan through the bottle of beer at Milton Bradley( I believe in LA). Was he a moronic American?

I still think the title should just be "moron fan"

Where he's from, or where you think he may be from has no bearing on this matter.

Kevin, you mean all of you in the LA area don't drive convertibles, have three super model girlfriends and routinely attend parties in the Hollywood Hills? I'm shocked!
I routinely did all those things at one point or another, except, in my case, it was three super girlfriends ... supermodels, no. (And, only one at a time, too.) You can also throw in motorcycle cruises up Pacific Coast Highway. Three of my addresses in life were Hollywood[Hills, actually], Manhattan Beach and Brentwood (still have an office there); but now it's different. Much different.

These two simple words changed everything forever: I do.
