Lightbulb Going to Home Depot...

Friends, I give you THE DUMBEST GUY ON EARTH!



This picture is real - not doctored in any way - and was taken by a
materials driver for 84 Lumber. When he saw it in the parking lot of IHOP, he went to buy a camera to take pictures.

The car is still running, as can be witnessed by the exhaust.
A woman is either asleep or otherwise out in the front seat passenger
side. The driver was jogging up and down on Rt. 925.(in the background)
Witnesses said their physical/mental state was OTHER than normal. The
driver finally came back after the police were called, and was found
crouched behind the rear of the car, attempting to cut the twine around
the load! Luckily, the police stopped him and had the load removed. The materials were loaded at Home Depot. Their store manager said they made
the customer sign a waiver. While the plywood and 2X4s are fairly
what you can ' t see is the back seat, which contains -- are you ready
for this? -- 10 bags of concrete @ 80 lbs. each. They estimated the load
weight at 3000 lbs. Both back tires exploded, the wheels bent and the
back shocks were driven through the floorboard.. The car, with FLA plates, was headed for Clanton, Al. where the couple presumably planned
to build a new house.

What the....wow, I don't know much about cars and loads and stuff, but even I know that load would call for a truck of some kind. U'd think that the guy would have figured it out when he saw the shocks and stuff bending and the tires blowing. What a tool!

The sad thing about the picture is that it's not just an urban legend.
You can see more picture of the car at Urban Legends "Lumber Car" on the SNOPES website.

I can't believe the woman was snoozing the whole time, even in the other pictures. The ride must have been rough, wouldn't she wake up? In one of the pictures I've seen it makes me wonder if she's dead, the stuff is all just to bury her in concrete.

And to think, it's legal for people like that to breed. Go figure.

Ciao,
