I wouldn't say people are stupid. I think it's more that they're either lazy, or what I call a "space cadet" -- disconnected from reality. People are starting to get used to not thinking for themselves, so rather than sit for a second and try to formulate an answer on their own, they'll just ask a stupid question. There are some questions, especially in retail that are so dumb, if the people who asked were really as stupid as the question, they wouldn't be able to function in society.

When I sold printing, one of our standard products were 4" x 6" postcards. People would call and ask what size they were. Another brilliant question was when they were about to send over the artwork and they would ask, "How do you know which artwork goes on the front, and which goes on the back?" -- are you fucking kidding me with this?!?!
