Who Is the Dumbest Person in the World?
A recent poll by YouGov America found that 37% of Americans would prefer to be dumb but happy. It’s hard to know what to take from that statistic. While being happy is what life is all about, is not having brains worth the sacrifice? Whatever your thoughts, it is plain to see that many Americans don’t have a problem with the possibility of being the dumbest person in the world.
As we have seen over the past couple of years, especially from a political standpoint, people really will believe anything. What’s more, we now know how stupid these people are thanks to the internet. Go online and you can find hundreds of stories about the stupid things people have done and said. We have scoured the internet to find a collection of stories and first-hand accounts about people who qualify for the title of the dumbest person in the world. The majority of these tales are from Reddit, where you can find information on just about everything. Read on below and make your picks for who your think deserves the title of the dumbest person in the world.
1. She’s a Genius
“I know a woman who bragged on Facebook that she scored 84 on her IQ test… She thought it was out of 100.” – @Mr_Nonesuch
It’s hard to know what to say. Nice try maybe?
2. Pretending To Sleep Won’t Throw Off the Cops
“One night during high school, my friend and I got invited to a party. I didn’t drive back then so my friend picked me up. All went well on our way to the party. On the way back, however, he got pulled over. As we were pulling to the side of the road, I told him that I was gonna pretend to be sleeping (since I was the passenger). Anyway, I hear the cop get out of his cop car, walk towards our car, stops at the window but doesn’t say anything. I can feel the brightness of his flashlight but I don’t hear him or my friend say anything. After about what seemed like an eternity, I decide to open my eyes to see what’s going on. That’s when I see my friend, the guy who is driving, is pretending like he is sleeping too.” – @Puppetz1287
