What's the dumbest thing you heard said today?

[medicineman]

I think the non-technical term for that is drivel?  ;D

Most stupid thing I heard today was all the shit coming out of the mouths of the mothers on those Tiara's and Toddlers shows. My mother inlaw was babysitting my two year old and watching that crap. I caught some of the conversations. Those shows are disgusting and the parents sound like morons.

Their all the same.
"My little girl loves competitions and getting her hair done and the ritz and blitz" mean while the children who are dressed up like britany spears are crying -shouting leave me alone and I wanna go home.

I've seen that show before.....albeit against my will.  It's probably the most awful thing on tv.  I feel your pain.

Flipping through the channels last night, I came across one of those shows.  I paused to stare, as though at a traffic accident scene.

Society has failed.  I blame Walmart


(Hey, you have to blame someone, right?)  :dunno:

I blame politicians. The masses have to be entertained somehow and religion has lost its grip...

I refuse to watch nausea like this, including Jersey Shore...

 

[Spooks]

I blame TV

(You can take that double entendre as you see fit )

I'll take the hit ;D

My wife watches that crap. Jersey Shore, Housewives of whatever, Kardasians.

Last night theres some girls working at "Dash" when one pulls the other into the back room of the store.
Can you keep a secret?
No really, can you keep a secret, like, don't tell anyone, okay?
I have....a bump....it might be an STD, don't tell anyone okay?
Meanwhile the camera is right in their face and of course airhead 2 is going to tell other people airhead 1's secret- drama ensues.

I hate cable.

I thought I had it bad with The Cake Boss - who once you watch it - he's pretty cool. I am not a regular watcher.

The Kardashians - trailer trash with money.

The Kardashians - trailer trash with money.

And one of the reasons they have money is because people watch that trash.  I think they would make a better contribution to society if they posed for Playboy or other such fine publications...

I agree with you on those points.

Maybe we could start our own "reality" show?

"Hairy People* of the CF?"

*we wouldn't want to discriminate on the basis of gender! ;D

OS- "Leading Seaman all these box lunches are bad they're going to expire today"
LS- "That's the day they were made"
OS- "Are you sure? these look kinda of gross"
LS- "That's what box's lunches look like"

I always get a chuckle out of this topic.  Food does not have an "expiration" date.  It's a "best before" date.  "Best before" does not mean "toxic afterward."  A "best before" date assumes proper storage.  If something needs to be chilled, but isn't, it could well spoil before its "best before" date.  If you freeze some things, you can extend their use (although I would argue in some cases whether it's still "best").

Random Officer in Wardroom:  "This milk has expired.  The stewards should bring up some new stuff."

Wise and Experienced SYO:  "Is it chunky?  Does it smell or taste bad?"

Random Officer:  "No."

Wise SYO:  "Then it's OK to drink."

Random Officer:  "But it's past its expiration date.  We need some new milk up here!"

Wise SYO:  "It's not an "expiration date."  It's a "best before" date.  Furthermore, we've chilled it at a lower temperature* to extend its life.  The other think to keep in mind is that we've been at sea for two weeks.  We haven't re-supplied and all the milk on board was purchased at the same time, in the same place.  It all has the same "best before" date.  The milk in the dairy fridge is no fresher than that here in the Wardroom.  Unless there's a Mac's Milk barge nearby, that's what we've got.

Random Officer:  "But it's expired! :crybaby:

Wise SYO:  "Fine.  There's warm UHT in the cupboard."

*The life of fresh milk can be extended by chilling it to the point where ice crystals begin to form, but before it freezes.  Freezing it will keep it until thawed, but once thawed, it will go sour very quickly

MMB Class - good one!

Mmmm, room temp milk in a big tetrabox....

Once upon a time there were no TV shows about making cakes. And then all of the sudden.... cake shows. I don't get how that caught on.

I would say the dumbest thing I've read today would be a "retirement" message for a 2Lt with a couple weeks more than 2 years in.

That's not retiring from the armed forces. That's just quitting.
