Why are some people allowed to live?! Suffering from ads?

A conversation with Jade, Big Brother UK's most stupid contestant ever, and Spencer.

quote:

Spencer: "You know you see those people in Venice standing on the back of gondolas, pushing it around?"

Jade: "They don't do that on the Thames though, do they?"

Spencer: "No. I don't work on the Thames. I work in Cambridge."

Jade: "Is there not the Thames there?"

Spencer: "No!"

Jade: "Is there a river called the Cambridge river?"

Spencer: "Yeah, it's called the Cam."

Jade: "Really? You swear? I only thought there was the Thames. I thought that was the main one in London."

Spencer: "It is. I don't live in London."

Jade: "I'm confused. I thought Cambridge was in London. I knew Birmingham weren't in London."

Spencer: "Would you like to go and tell the group what you just said?"

Jade: "No..."

Spencer: "Cambridge is a city."

Jade: "But we've got a city in London."

Spencer: "Yes. This city is called London. And there's different parts of it. Cambridge is a city."

Jade: "Of where? Kent?"

Jade: "Well England's a country, London's a city, Bermondsey's just a throw-off. Now where are you? What's your country, and what's your things?"

Spencer: "What country am I from? England. The city is called Cambridge, the county Cambridgeshire."

Jade: "So not Kent then?"

Spencer: "Nooooo.... The region is called East Anglia."

Jade: "East Angular? That's abroad. Is there not a place called East Angular abroad?"

Spencer: "Jade, have you been taking the stupid pills again?"

Jade: "Every time people tell me they work in East Angular, I actually think they're talking about near Tunisia and places like that. Am I thick?"

Spencer: "Well, I hate to say it, but you are."

Jade: "Cos Scottish and Irish and all that comes under England, doesn't it?"

Spencer: "No... They come under Great Britain. Scotland and Wales have their own flags. Northern Ireland and Ireland are different."

Jade: "So they're not together? Where's Berlin?"

Spencer: "Germany..."




She knows Birmingham isn't in London? Wow, she is clever...

Do people as stupid as this actually exist?

I, personally, will happily strangle her with my own hands for suggesting the Thames runs through Cambridge. It wouldn't be so bad, but it does run through Oxford.

The problem is these people have children, and then those children have children, thus continuing the spread of stupid genes. One guy at my work said yesterday "There's no way that humans evolved from apes, I mean, there's nothing in between us." I said "Of course you twit, we evolved FROM apes that's the whole point... what humans are now used to be what you call the 'in-betweens'."

Later in the day, he commented on a completely different subject "You know, the best place to be homeless would be South Florida..." I didn't even bother replying to that one.

Last week he said, "You know, all those starving people in hispanic countries are pretty smart for being poor, they can all speak spanish... I could even get a C in Spanish in high school." He was serious when he said this too.... that's scary.

Good. Maybe it will stay lost for the Russians as well.



I think some of this is due to people that were dumb enough to sniff glue and managed to survive anyway. I don't see how else they could have reached adulthood if they were that dumb as kids.

Wow, the english BB team have really been fishing in the shallow end of the gene pool. Does she know how to tie her own shoe laces?

This is even more stupid than Emma from the swedish Robinson (Survivor) who willingly let herself be dressed in a T-shirt that said "TREBLINKA - Class of ´45" in a satire TV show and participated in a faked interview that was full of nazi-references (51 of them!) Everyone that went straight over her head. I wish I had time to translate the whole "interview", it´s truly hilarious...

Here´s a few highlights...
---
Interviewer: Last week I attended a music festival in Dachau. There I saw a female DJ named DJ Goebbels, she played a song named N.S.D.A.P I think. When she was on stage I thought she sounded a bit like you. Have you heard of her?

Emma: No, I haven´t

Interviewer: I think this song N.S.D.A.P has had some sucess in Eastern Europe, it annexed the charts in Poland for instance. But maybe it´s hard for you to keep track of allt he new acts?

Emma: No, but if you hum it a bit?

Interviewer: Ha, ha. No, nobody here dares to do that...

Emma: Maybe I´ll have to check her out for myself. What was her name again?

Interviewer: DJ Goebbels. Now the Germans are on the go, the talk is of a major german invasion. Do you keep track of what´s happening in Europe?

Emma: I try to stay informed.
---
Exit stage left...

Did I hear anyone say airhead bimbo?

If you want to practice your swedish here´s a trancript of the interview http://hem.passagen.se/hbif12/sro2002_03_27.htm

How about taking over India when both the French and Dutch had the jump on them?

The Brits often have some guy that goes at least semi native and he does the important work. Besides they had a very good navy and no one could attack England itself except the Scots and they hired the Scots to fight for them. Its nice to have safe base of operations.

I hate those guys that made the show since the first time I saw them they where destroying the Olympics with stupid so called jokes. Those two are so full of confidence of their own wit and superiority. They don't seem get that they actually lacks both talent and humour. They are themselves the jokes imho.
