Obtuse. A kind and gentle word for Stupid.
Most of us do most things pretty much right, which is why we see these videos pop up of people doing really stupid things. Because those people are in the minority, they get our attention. The rest of us look at their stupid behavior that often gets them killed and are amazed and entertained by their last moments of existence.
“Proving Darwin right” has become a meme because of these idiots among us who don’t think before they act. Like the motorcyclist who decided to ride around a big boulder on the cliff side of a mountain instead of the safe side and promptly fell to his death, but not without some very dramatic bounces on the way down.
So to honor and celebrate these morons with their very own day, I hereby proclaim the Second Tuesday in December to be OBTUESDAY. Party on, you stupid people, today is your day.
