Their so stupid!
Editor's note: "Charles, that should read 'they're', not 'their'."
Charles: "Yes, I know. It's a joke. I'm poking fun at myself."
Editor: "Oh, sorry!"
Anyway, it's time to shine the spotlight on idiots once again as this week the Charles Fudgemuffin blog features another batch of Idiot Awards.

| A grumpy hair stylist complains about job discrimantion. |
1) Miserable Idiot
This first example highlights just how idiotic the forever-outraged elements of our society have become. To summarize the story, a hair salon wanted to place a job advert, but they were told they weren't allowed to advertise for a 'happy stylist' because it discriminated against unhappy people!
Not surprisingly, the hair salon owner placing the advert thought it was a joke at first, but incredibly the local job centre were actually being serious. Thankfully, they eventually backed down though, once the story started going viral on social media.
2) Green idiots
Scientists have created something called 'Liquid Trees' - a tank full of water and micro-algae - which they claim could be used as an alternative to trees.

So basically, the scientists are suggesting we replace trees with a tank full of green sludge!?
I don't mean to be awkward, but what's wrong with just planting trees? I think trees are pretty cool if you ask me. Put it this way, they're certainly better than a tank full of green sludge!
3) Water idiot
This next Idiot Award goes to whoever this sign was deemed necessary for.

"Caution: Water on road during rain."
If you need a sign to tell you that there'll be water on the road when it rains, then perhaps you shouldn't be driving.
That said, signs should never be used as an excuse for poor road construction, but even a well-constructed road will still get wet when it rains.
4) Chair idiot
I can't help thinking it would have been more practical to actually sit on the chair, rather than balance it on his head...

'Hmm, I need to transport this seat on the tube. How shall I transport it? I know! I'll balance it on my head!'
Editor: "Charles, maybe he just didn't want to attract attention to himself by sitting on a comfortable chair while on the tube."
Charles: "So instead he decided to balance it on his head? Yes, that definitely won't attract attention to himself!"
5) Altitude idiot
 |
| "I'm on top of the world... ...apart from that slightly taller mountain behind me." |
While on the Titanic, he flung his arms in the air, and shouted, "I'm on top of the world!" Yet he was on the Titanic - a ship which was sailing on the sea - when he said this. So he was therefore literally at sea level, which is way below the top of the world. What an idiot!
Editor: "Charles, what Leonardo actually said was, 'I'm the king of the world'."
Charles: "Oops! It looks like I'm the idiot then, not Jack Dawson!"
Editor: "To be fair, he wasn't the king of the world either. He was an artist."
Charles: "So we're both idiots!"
6) Wooden idiot
Finally, if you were making a fireplace, then surely the first rule should be:
"Don't make the fireplace out of a material that burns."
However, apparently the person who made the fireplace below threw the rulebook out of the window...

Surely this has got to a joke? Are there any fireplace experts reading this who can explain why you would make a fireplace out of wood?
Presumably it was marketed as a single use fireplace?

That's it for this week, but there are many more idiots in the world, so no doubt I'll feature another round up of idiots again at some point in the future.

Disclaimer: Literally every person in the world who has ever existed - apart from Jesus Christ - has been an idiot at some point in their life, so the above examples are intended in a good-natured manner.
