Idiot Sightings – they walk among us!
IDIOT SIGHTING #1
My daughter and I went through the McDonald’s take-out window and I gave the clerk a £5 note. Our total was £4.20, so I also handed her a 20 pence piece. She said, ‘You gave me too much money.’
I said, ‘Yes I know, but this way you can just give me £1 back.’
She sighed and went to get the Manager who asked me to repeat my request.
I did so, and he handed me back the 20 pence and said ‘We’re sorry but we do not do that kind of thing.’
The clerk then proceeded to give me back 80 pence in change..Do not confuse the clerks at MacDonald’s.
IDIOT SIGHTING #2
We had to have the garage door repaired. The GARADOR repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a ‘large’ enough motor on the opener.
I thought for a moment, and said that we had the largest one GARADOR made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower.
He shook his head and said, ‘Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower.’
I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, ‘NOOO, it’s not. Four is larger than two..’We haven’t used Garador repair since. Happened in Moor Park, near Watford.
IDIOT SIGHTING #3
I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbour call the Highways Department to request the removal of the ‘DEER CROSSING’ sign on our road.
The reason: ‘Too many deer are being hit by cars on this stretch of road! I don’t think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.’Story from Potters Bar, Hertfordshire.
IDIOT SIGHTING #4
My daughter went to a local Kentucky Fried Chicken and ordered a Taco. She asked the person behind the counter for ‘minimal lettuce.’
He said he was sorry, but they only had Iceberg Lettuce.From South Oxhey, Hertfordshire.
IDIOT SIGHTING #5
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, ‘Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?’ To which I replied, ‘If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?’
He smiled knowingly and nodded, ‘That’s why we ask.’
Happened at Luton Airport
IDIOT SIGHTING #6
The traffic light on the corner buzzes when it’s on red and safe to cross the road. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged friend of mine. She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, ‘What on earth are blind people doing driving?!’
She is a Local County Council employee in Harrow, Middlesex.
IDIOT SIGHTING #7
When my husband and I arrived at our local Ford dealer to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the Service Department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver’s door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. ‘Hey,’ I announced to the Fitter/Mechanic, ‘its open!’
His reply: ‘I know. I already did that side.’This was at the Ford dealership in St Albans, Hertfordshire.
STAY ALERT!
They walk among us…[From an email I received today...]

A Glaswegian Advent Calendar
I got sent this by an old work colleague – a Glaswegian Advent Calendar. A great idea, but let’s face it, you could never have just one!

Separated At Birth?
I was watching Corpse Bride with the kids recently, and was completely struck by the similarities between slimy Lord Barkis and our permatanned Secretary of State, Peter Hain. It’s quite sinister really.
If you don’t think there’s a resemblance between the two, watch the movie and you’ll see what I mean.

Doktor Moog
The Belfast Telegraph has kindly recommended Doktor Moog in a recent article. If I’m getting my facts right, this is the same guy responsible for the graphics in the sorely missed Portadown News.
I loved the Doktor’s treatment of the Chronicles of Norn Ironia and his comments on Westlink traffic delays versus political progress. Check it out, although it’s probably old news by now and no-one bothered telling me!
The archive section is brilliant (although the navigation needs work – those pop-up’s are annoying!) and features some of the Doktor’s work from the Portadown News era.
