    If there is one moron at work, you have a moronic coworker.

    If everyone at work is a moron, you are the moronic coworker.

      If it smells like shit near someone, avoid them.

      If it smells like shit near anyone, check the bottom of your shoe.

    Did she encounter a mirror?

    For the outliers who may not be familiar with the term Dunning–Kruger effect, here it is in the real world.

      It also creates a really weird paradox where the folks suffering from this effect do not believe they are suffering from this effect and instead believe that everyone else is.

      It’s a lose-lose situation for everyone involved. There is no winning play, since any play means being drug down by stupidity.

    In that video clip she’s not actually wrong. And I feel dirty just typing those words out. Americans are going broke because of the idiots in Washington DC.

    However, maybe she shouldn’t be throwing stones inside her glass house. She’s easily in the top 5 of the most moronic people in DC.

      You say idiots like they don’t know what they’re doing. They do. They are paid corporate liars, decievers, malicious abusive sociopathic ETOW oil cock sucking actors. Do not for one second pretend that Biden is anything but exactly the same.

      They used to be a respected news publication, but then they got bought and turned into a streaming pile of dung. It’s all about what gets clicks now, so your confusion is understandable.

      Nah I think Queen Elizabeth was not a complete out of touch monster. Can’t say the same for most other parts of The Firm.
