In the category of…Duh!

And I mean, “duh!” not “doh!” (There is a difference. Savvy?)

So, yeah. *rolling eyes* As if we had to be alerted to the fact that texting could be hazardous to your health.

In my book, it’s sort of common sense that when you’re walking, you pay attention to where you’re going. Same with driving. Which follows that, if you’re texting while you’re walking, you really have to pay attention. Or….duh! you could walk into someone or fall off a curb and twist your ankle.

Not exactly a newsflash.

And in other duh-related news…yesterday someone actually forwarded to me the old (old, old, old, old) scam about forwarding emails around so that Microsoft will pay you $250 for everyone you forward to. Riiiiight.

(If you don’t know what I’m talking about, or if you just want a good laugh at the reminder of how gullible some people are…go here.)

So, it’s not Tuesday, but there’s my rant!

    You have got to be kidding! That is the most stupid thing I have ever seen. P.T. Barnum said “Theres a sucker born every minute.” Oh well, it is a really good laugh.

    Oh man, that’s the discovery of boiling water, really… *roll eyes*

    As for that old scam: is it still going around? O_o I got it at least 100 times and it always go keeping company to all that spam that ask me if I want to enhance my penis. And I’m a girl. -___________-

    You should add responsible book-reading to that list. I understand that good books can be difficult to put down, but walking down the sidewalk beside a six lane street with a book in front of your face is not the safest place to engage a barnburner of a book.
    Believe it or not, I see this fairly often.
