Exactly. They're stupid. Who cares? I care. They bother me. And that's why I'm stupid. That makes me exponentially more stupid than stupid. I'm stupid to the power of stupid. She waved her hand. The moon blew away. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. I looked at her out of the corner of my eye.
