Lol. This has to be staged. Nobody could be that stupid and not flip the fuck out the instant the guy with the camera shows up.

How do you know ?

People are fucking stupid. Everytime you thought you saw someone stupid, there always is someone more stupid walking this planet.

There is no maximum to stupitiy. Especially not for groups of people.

The fact the camera is out sets off my BS detectors. Stupid people usually don't act so, shall we say calm when confronted they usually go ballistic. This person doesn't.

That is a point. It could be staged.

But I still believe that stupidity itself is a thing that has no limits. Aside from this post here.

It's real.

I could actually see myself doing that. It's a psychological phenomenon, motivated perception, we see what we want to see. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/between-cultures/201907/why-we-see-what-we-want-see

I'm not an overly visual guy to begin with, so you see a tank with an attachment and you need air for your tires, you can see what you wanted to see and not what it actually is.

The one I don't get, and maybe this is because I deal with cooking more than cars, is people who mistake flour for sugar and vice versa in recipes.

Does that happen? I could see mistaking salt for sugar. In fact, I think that happened with a dish I ordered at a restaurant one time, the only time I've ever sent something back.
