Could intelligence be efficient stupidity?
Click to expand...

Speaking from personal experience I'd say laziness and/or carelessness (together they're a killer combination!) was the most efficient way of being stupid.... :yesnod:
 
Yes, I'm sure that we can all point to ways to be stupid more efficiently, but don't those examples impart a sense of intelligence in their actual execution?

Bet you'd never guess what I just watched 5 minutes of tonight......I get my best ideas from them. All 536 of them.
 
Paul,

I know the answer. Call on me! Call on me!
 
Ooof. If it's the same 536 I'm thinkin' of, I can't see ANY way you'd get good ideas.

...at least not any civilised legal ones.
 
Stupidity is doing the same thing over and over without any success but expecting something different.

Tony, we already agreed that was the definition of Insanity, but now that you mention it, one would also have to be a bit stupid to keep doing something over and over as well.

Yep, & thanks for playing the role of straight man for me.....you've brought me to the relevant question: is there a difference between insanity & stupidity?

Many brillant people have gone insane, but stupidity starts from scratch and is forever, IMHO.
