Foolish

Hello,

didn't you call me,...... then call again.
yes..!! Of course that was me.


Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in
circulation.At first, the statement sounds horribly ungenerous. Closer scrutiny will however reveal its
realistic veracity. No matter how high are one's estimates
of human stupidity, one is repeatedly and recurrently
startled by the fact that:
a) people whom one had once
judged rational and intelligent
turn out to be unashamedly
stupid.
b) day after day, with
unceasing monotony, one is harassed in one's activities by stupid individuals who appear
suddenly and unexpectedly in the most inconvenient places and at the most improbable
moments.
The First Basic Law prevents me from attributing a specific numerical value to the
fraction of stupid people within the total population: any numerical estimate would turn
out to be an underestimate. Thus in the following pages I will denote the fraction of
stupid people within a population by the symbol å.

A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of
persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.


Most people do not act consistently. Under certain circumstances a given person acts
intelligently and under different circumstances the same person will act helplessly. The
only important exception to the rule is represented by the stupid people who normally
show a strong proclivity toward perfect consistency in all fields of human endeavours.
