Does noticing stupidity come with getting old? Not one day goes by that I don't witness stupidity coming from people in this town. I know it is not just this town but it is wide spread through out the country.
I don't know how many of you drop your children off at school but doesn't it just fry your shorts when the car ahead of you stops to drop their child off and it takes them 5 minutes to get them out the door.
Here at Woods Elementary in Wills Point we have 5 spots in front of the entrance to drop your children off. 5 cars pull up stop at five drop off areas let their children out and then the next 5 cars does the same thing. This way we have 5 cars dropping children off at the same time and the line moves good.
It never fails that there is one moron that stops in the first slot to let their child out and they are the ones that never have their kid ready so it takes them several minutes to get them out the door and up the sidewalk. Of course they have to stay there and watch the child walk all the way...2 steps...to the waiting arms of a band of teachers...like they might get kidnapped. Meanwhile we have a line of cars behind them who can't move up because moron mom has the drive blocked!
What is wrong with the school staff that sees what is happening and wont say anything about it? These people are teaching our children!
What is really bad is then I get to follow moron mom out to the main street where she misses the light because she stops to light her a cigarette. By this time I am about to blow a heart valve and set off the air bag!
I am glad this is Friday and I don't have to get out tomorrow. Like they say you can't fix stupid...

Can anyone say "Road Rage"? If I were dealing with a situation like yours I'd probably be just as upset...probably one reason "young" people were the ones blest with these little darlings and the young parents have more patience than us older, more seasoned, types.
I agree with Marty and Roz. The older we get the less patience we have with "stupidity". It won't be long you'll not have to worry about stopping at the school.
