I posted that I wasn't the cartoonist, and that I thought it was a little funny. A little funny because it presents an opinion with a modicum of truth, even though it uses the word "stupid". Had I been the cartoonist, I would have substituted the word "stupid" with the word "ignorant". You can't fix "stupid". You can fix "ignorant". Most of us fix some level of "ignorant" within ourselves during the course of experiencing everyday life. "Stupid" means one is incapable of learning from past mistakes (due to a lower level mental capacity, stubborn beliefs based in an up-brining by stupid parents, or genuine mental disorders), and applying that learned knowledge to prevent making the same mistakes.

I'm ignorant of many things. I learn more everyday. I apply that learning to usable knowledge. One does not need to have a high level of intelligence to apply ever increasing knowledge to a set of basic beliefs based upon that knowledge. You don't keep doing the same things that previously failed you expecting different results, except when your GPS navigation unit loses the satellite signal in the Boston tunnel system. Okay, I was stupid two weeks ago! Once. I did get out of the tunnel before having to pay the same toll gate twice, but not before I saw it again...

The moral of this story is, don't drive around in circles expecting to get somewhere else, and don't always believe directions given to you at the toll gate when your GPS is down. Driving around in circles will only piss you off, and the toll gate guy is only looking to take more of your money.
