“Fight Stupidity And Bureaucracy”
One of my
best friends is a farmer. Or was, he sold up a few years ago, tired of the long
hours in all sorts of inclement weather. But he did it for many years and has a
host of good stories about incidents that happened during that time.
He was a
dairy farmer for a good part of his farming career. As a result he has a
healthy respect, but also more than a little contempt for cows. In fact he says
they are probably the stupidest animal he has ever come across. (He hasn’t met
our dog that thinks it’s a cat yet!)
He says
that a cow is probably the only animal that is stupid enough to get stuck
behind a open gate. Actually I’ve seen this happen myself. If a field gate is
partially open at least one of them will get between it and the hedge or fence
and they don’t seem to be able to figure out how to reverse and take a new
route out of the field.
If you’re
having a laugh at that, good. It’s even funnier when you see it in person I
assure you. But there’s something even stupider than the cow I fear. That is
people, some people! Take this lady in the video below.
All she has
to do is reverse her car out of the garage.
Simple?
Of course
not!
Have a look
(I’m not sure I would like her driving my kids around, would you?)
