Everyone Is Entitled To His Own Stupid Opinion ... Or Is He?

Too much of a good thing is a bad thing. In the Good Ole USofA we just have too much communication. We can express our opinions in a myriad of ways and we do just that constantly. We are chomping at the bit to let the world know how smart (or dumb) we are.

The Smartfella? is here to give you some food for thought... It is very possible the world might be able to get along just fine without your input.

Here is a current example...

Gabby Douglas is rolling along and singing a song. Who would be dumb enough to rain on her parade? A lot of people are sending rain her way. They seem to think, I Got An Obligation To See To It That The Uninformed Become Informed Society.

She is being Twitted about, Facebooked about and Blogged about. Here is one of the worst...

She also is dealing with some of fame’s downside. Her straightened hair has triggered debates on Twitter and other social-media sites, with some women criticizing the style and others calling it unkempt. But the tiff doesn’t seem to bother Douglas.

“What is wrong with my hair? Are you kidding me? I just made history, and you are focusing on my hair?” she said. “Nothing is going to change. I am going to wear my hair like this for bar finals. You might as well get used to it.”

Here comes the Foolishness ... Or is it?...

• Oh my gosh! I can’t believe what I just saw! That guy just broke the World Record in the Pole Vault by 7.5 feet! While I admire his accomplishment, I could not help but notice how he held the pole with his right hand. Did you see how his pinkie finger was extended as if he thought he was better than other pole vaulters who, try as they might, can’t come close to his ability?
• By golly that was amazing! I just witnessed the impossible! That sprinter just ran the 100 Meter Dash in 2.76 seconds. You will never see that done again but did you notice those gaudy shorts she was wearing? I thank heaven that not a single Hollywood Celebrity would ever wear shorts that abhorrent.
• Shazam! That Rower just won the 2,000 Meters Singles Competition by rowing in circles the entire race while all of his opponents rowed in a straight line. That is one for the books but, I must point out that, he rowed counter-clockwise. As any high school physics student knows, that is a lot easier than clockwise since we are in the Earth’s Northern Hemisphere.

Back to Gabby getting back at to her critics... As Howard Cosell was known to say, “You go girl. Tell it like it is!” or, as a well known radio Talk Show Host of today has often said on his show, “Shut up you big dope!”

Would I kid u?

More: Don’t comment to this message by pointing out that this clockwise vs. counter-clockwise law is not always the law... http://www.loc.gov/rr/scitech/mysteries/coriolis.html. I already found this out on my own but I’m sticking to my silliness as pecked out above because I have a right to write about Foolishness wherever I find it.
