Stupid is a dominant gene

I really love dogs, which is why we decided to breed ours. I don't think I'll be breeding them anymore because I'm afraid that the dogs are smarter than most of the people who have contacted us. The homes that the dogs have gone to so far have been perfect, I couldn't have hoped for better for those puppies. But those battles were hard fought. We had to..."kiss a lot of frogs" if you will.

I get insane questions all the time, the most irritating being the ones who ask me to drive places with three German Shepherd puppies in the back of my car. Have you lost your damn mind? You do know these aren't the little "teacup" thingies that Paris Hilton carries around in her bra strap, right? These dogs already way more than my son. I've already mentioned the ones who want to know if these are show quality dogs...I am ripping my hair out. Of course not. Don't be so lazy.

That's what it is actually, laziness. They have lazy minds. If you want to know anything about the breed, all you have to do is type it into Google, since I'm absolutely positive making a trip to the library would be way too taxing. And they obviously have access to a computer because I get these ridiculous questions via email. I don't mind asking questions, I actually like it, but the stupid ones make me nuts.

I know I used to rant and rave about people not having an independent thought amongst them, but I was hoping I was wrong. Or, that maybe that was just the jobless internet community I was talking to most of the time. I was right! I have never been so depressed about being right.

This is the conversation that inspired this post:


digitalkitten06: why do only stupid people want dogs
digitalkitten06: or...mostly stupid
digitalkitten06: is it just that people are predominately stupid in general?

Josh Sammons: I guess they're gene pool needs a little chlorine..

digitalkitten06: Seriously...
digitalkitten06: I mean I used to say I didn't think people had an independent thought among them, but I was hoping I was wrong
digitalkitten06: But...I'm not.
digitalkitten06: I just got an email about the dogs WHICH by the way, came from puppyfind and the person was asking "how much" which is clearly written on the friggin add
digitalkitten06: Secondly, she said, and this is an exact quote:
digitalkitten06: "Is Maine or Massachusetts too far"
digitalkitten06: that was the question....what the heck does that mean?! Are you asking me to drive there with three puppies in my car?
digitalkitten06: What is going through your head?!

Josh Sammons: She must be a little kid email you

digitalkitten06: No i don't think so

Josh Sammons: If so it'd be cute

digitalkitten06: but I'm pretty sure she is black
digitalkitten06: "chalanda22" is her email

Josh Sammons: Why do black people want shepherds so much?

digitalkitten06: i dont know i thought they were scared of them
digitalkitten06: they like "mean" dogs

Josh Sammons: maybe thats why they want one, they're scared so they think everyone else will be

digitalkitten06: they want to scare off black people? hahahah
11:45 AM
digitalkitten06: God
digitalkitten06: What scares off stupid people?
digitalkitten06: Word puzzles?
digitalkitten06: "In order to speak to me you must solve a puzzle. If solved, you may move forward."

Josh Sammons: Progress, thinking for yourself, work

digitalkitten06: Then why aren't they all dead yet

Josh Sammons: lemmings

digitalkitten06: stupid people wanting shepherds is kind of funny
digitalkitten06: those dogs could probably outsmart most of the people that contact us

So the majority are really just walking around blindly waiting for someone who does think to help them along. And that's really what it is. Like I said earlier, laziness. When I am lucky enough to find another intelligent person they are always so impressed, "Wow, you're actually smart! It's nice to talk to someone who is intelligent for once."

Why is that? It's absolutely pathetic. I'm not a college graduate. I don't have anything particularly special. There are people with disabilities that function better than the people I'm talking about. And I'm not saying I'm perfect, or that I don't make mistakes or feel stupid once in a while. Everybody does. I am talking about stupid as a lifestyle. It's just unacceptable to me.

Unfortunately, that's not the standard for the rest of the world. So, people are encouraged to act the way they do because that's "just who they are". Well I for one will not allow people to be stupid in my presence anymore. I will charge people to think of things, answer their own questions if possible. Work their brains. I will probably not make any friends, but atleast I won't have idiots hanging around me. If those are my options I'd rather be alone anyway.

Ugh. Well I haven't done one of these "I'm disgusted with everyone" posts in a while so yeah, enjoy.
