... that is, according to Bing AI, which has done some thinking about Peak Stupidity. It has obviously consulted
Well, I mean, it's not wrong...
A few months back, Adam Smith pasted in a link for us to a song that I hadn't listened to since about the time it was on the radio, nearly 30 years ago. Why those lyrics have not come into my head since this blog's been active is a mystery.
This is The Refreshments* with Banditos, from their 1996 album Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy.
Well it's just you and me, baby.That's very 1990s, obviously before the day of ubiquitous cameras. It would have worked too, most definitely the part about the fake ID!
No one else we can trust.
We'll say nothin' to no one,
no how or we'll bust.
Never crack a smile or flinch or cry
For nobody.
So give you ID card to the border guard.
Your alias says you got John Luke Picard
pf the United Federation of Planets,
'cause they won't speak English any ways.
Everybody knows
that the world is full of stupid people.
So meet me at the mission at midnight.
We'll divvy up there.
Yeah, everybody knows
That the world is full of stupid people.
Well I got the pistol so I get the pesos.
Yeah that seems fair.
So put the sugar in the tank of the sheriff's car
We'll slash the deputy's tires.
They won't get very far
when they finally get the word
that there's been a hold-up.
Sorry, AI routine. We're stickin' with "Stupidity". We're damn sure not gonna pay GoDaddy for another URL!
OK, Peakers, we got busy this week, and next week will probably be similar. We've got stories about crazy female CongreffsDramaQueens coming, more immigration stupidity (but, of course!), and finally, hopefully, that post about Deflation. Have a happy, relaxing Sunday. Stay offline a while... I

“Have a happy, relaxing Sunday.”
Thank you. And, I will add, if I may: On Monday, Memorial Day, take a moment to honor the sacrifices made…notwithstanding the fact that the war in question might well have been a stupidity war.
I will give a special thought to Nathan Bruckenthal and the family of Nathan Bruckenthal, USCG. Nathan was killed during the Iraq “war.” The mission of the USCG is a humanitarian one. (Now, alas, only mainly so.) “We’ve got you - - You’re safe now.”

PS: Good afternoon, Alarmist.

You're in luck. If you need bail money, errr, get your wife to write in or something.
I don't do much, or any, singing. You would not want to experience that.

I’d start a stupidity.eu website (assuming it doesn’t already exist ... too lazy to check), but there’d be an interpol arrest warrant issued within an hour for my yet uncommitted crimethoughts.
Shame you can’t put stupidity.usa to the music of Surfin’ USA.

Was your Coast Guard friend (I assume) killed over in the Middle East?
