ReplyDeleteI can not pick out a most favourable one, I like them all!
These are real answers from contestants on TV.
DeleteGod bless, Ladka
...sometimes I think the pigeon brains are a lot bigger than those of some humans.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, Tom. Sometimes stupidity reigns supreme.
DeleteGod bless.
Dearest Victor,
ReplyDeleteIt is alarming this notice of a lot of pigeon brains around us in this world!
They of course lack any reading as that is a perfect way to stimulate and activate any 'thinking'... provided they got something passed down genetically!
Hugs,
Mariette
The only reading some do is on text and they learn new words like LOL, OMG and whatever else. Can you imagine Shakespeare writing like that? Methinks LOL!!!
DeleteGod bless, Mariette.
😳
DeleteThere was a late night show comedian who had a segment where he would go out on the street and ask people questions. I'm sure many people answered them correctly, but the only ones that ended up on the air were the 'pigeon brains'.
ReplyDeleteThat is probably because there are a lot of pigeons about, Kathy. Some of our quiz shows on TV ask the most inane questions.
DeleteGod bless always.
Those are so funny, sad but true!
ReplyDeleteYes ... sad but true.
DeleteGod bless, Brian.
These are hilarious, Victor! Your mind never ceases to amaze me. :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Oh no ... don't blame me ... these are not my answers, Martha. These are genuine quiz answers on TV. I am probably more stupid than that! In fact I did buy a Tower of Pisa when on holiday. When I got the model out of the box the tower was leaning to one side. So I stuck some small rubber pads underneath the base to straighten the tower. See ??? I am smart !!!
DeleteKeep smiling. God bless.
😀
ReplyDeleteGod bless, R.
DeleteKathy G and I must have been watching the same television show. Hard to believe, but yes; they exist. And drive. And vote. (*sigh*)
ReplyDeleteSad isn't it? Some people seem to lose their brains every time they go to the toilet.
DeleteGod bless, Mevely.
LOL, funny but unfortunatey I know some humans that would have answers like that.
ReplyDeleteYes Bill. Stupidity is catching, it seems.
DeleteGod bless you.
I guess we'll never see him on Jeopardy. :) Funny
ReplyDeleteAmazing the level of non-intelligence amongst some contestants.
DeleteGod bless, Happyone.
To believe they are "real answers" boggles my bird brain. HaHa.
ReplyDeleteAs Forest Gump said. " Stupid is as stupid does".
Stupidity is a cheap commodity these days. That's why so many people have it.
DeleteGod bless, Wanda.
Oh my LOL!!!! 😂 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 THANK YOU for making my day with laughter! And my husband's, because I just had to share these with him! God bless you! (You can do this again annnnnnytime lol!)
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see you visiting here, Diana. Thanx. Call again soon and often for more humourous articles.
DeleteGod bless you and your family.
Oh, dear. Sometimes i wonder what the education system is coming to!
ReplyDeleteIt seems that these days young people are rebelling against learning. They just don't want to be educated.
DeleteGod bless, Mimi.
Funny, and Pigeons are the stupidest of all birds. Ever watch them eat a piece of bread? THey grab it and throw it around where other pigeons fight over it. You would think that just once, one dumb bird would think to step on the bread!
ReplyDeleteNot even in a million years will pigeons learn to use a knife and fork!
DeleteGod bless, JoeH.
Although true, it's sad in a funny way!!!
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
It is sad what is happening to the education system.
DeleteGod bless, Jan.
