Supreme Stupidity

1. An act of extreme stupidity by the U.S. Supreme Court.

2. An attempt to undermine democracy or destroy human rights through judicial fiat.

3. What happens when a bunch of clueless lawyers pretend to be God.

Notable examples include:

-- The recent (2010) decision to allow unlimited corporate and interest group contributions to U.S. political campaigns.

-- The Buck vs. Bell ruling that permitted forced sterilization of the mentall ill. Justice Holmes said at the time: “Three generations of imbeciles are enough.”

-- The Dred Scott case that invalidated restrictions on slavery, while mandating that all African-Americans be treated as "property" in the eyes of the law.

-- Plessy v. Ferguson, which formally legalized segregation, Jim Crow laws and minority disenfranchisement throughout the nation.
The highest court in the land committed another act of Supreme Stupidity in January 2010 when it opened the floodgates to unlimited corporate cash in the election process. Can you say "plutocracy?" Sure you can!

Plot Induced Stupidity 

Plot Induced Stupidity, or PIS, is when characters don't use their abilities or skills to the fullest extent as shown before, even within their personality ranges, for the sake of the story plotline. It makes lesser powered characters an actual challenge against higher powered characters in the comics.
Examples of PIS include Flash stories lasting longer than three panels, or Toy Man as a threat to Superman. Standard CBR fights exempt the contestants from PIS unless otherwise specified.

malignant stupidity 

A disease marked by a level of lack of intelligence and common sense so deep, so aberrant, so impossibly incurable by any means whatsoever (conventional or otherwise) eventually leading the afflicted individual to perform some act ensuring demise and subsequent enormous amounts of ridicule by society at large for decades to come.

In cases where only the malignantly stupid subject him/herself falls victim to an act leading to self-extinction, nomination for a Darwin Award is in order, having removed themselves as potential polluters of the gene pool and propagation of malignant stupidity in future generations.

However, in cases where an uninvolved or otherwise innocent party/parties has the misfortune of being in close proximity to said act, resulting in death or injury to said party, the afflicted individual's qualification for a Darwin Award has been annulled even if they themselves died in commission of said act.
1. Having suffered from malignant stupidity since childhood, one could hear an audible sigh of relief from the gene pool the day Steve decided it was a GOOD idea to use dynamite to make holes for ice fishing; he EARNED that Darwin Award, the hard way.

2. Steve lost his chance forevermore at receiving a Darwin Award when it was discovered that his brother Jerry was fishing on the lake that day as well, unable to flee for cover before the load exploded, cracking the ice, and Jerry fell in. It is truly a shame that rescuers were unable to find his body until the spring melt, although they did manage to scrape bits and pieces of Steve off the ice.

terminal stupidity 

Terminal Stupidity - The combination of three factors: Lack of knowledge, lack of wisdom, and lack of concern, that endangers the lives of individuals afflicted with the condition, or those around them.

All three factors must continue for a substantial period of time for an individual to be considered "terminally stupid." The condition is often characterized by the attitude contained in this phrase: "I don't know, it don't matter, and I don't have to care."

Terminal stupidity is NOT a natural condition. It is a condition chosen by an individual, group, or corporation - but it is not a permanent flaw.

If the afflicted person or group can be educated with facts; OR,
If the afflicted person or group can be informed by wisdom and experience; OR,
If the afflicted person or group can be made to understand how a specific situation or decision does, in fact, concern them;

THEN... They are not terminally stupid.

Simply being ignorant, inexperienced/unwise, or arrogant/hubristic (uneducated/uninformed, unwise, or uncaring) does not make someone terminally stupid.

All three conditions MUST be met.
"Those corporate fuckers are terminally stupid! Someone's gonna die thanks to their terminal stupidity!"

"That crazy hippie wannabe is terminally stupid, tying himself to the top of that tree. He's gonna end up dead that way."

"Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and George W. Bush were terminally stupid in deciding to go to war in Iraq."

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

Person B: "Wow, EBK."
