Had to look it up
You know how once in a while you hear some story that's so outrageous you just have to check out its veracity?
There's this story going around that Nordstrom is selling rocks . . . in a leather pouch . . . for $85. I thought, nope. This is too stupid to be real. However, according to Snopes.com it totally is.
It's supposed to be selling quite well too.
Okay then. Our country's situation can now be easily explained. Many Americans are as dumb as a box of rocks -or a bag of rocks in this case.
I'm shipwrecked in America, the land of idiots. The dumbing down is complete. I've got to get a bigger boat and sail over the horizon. Excuse me, for you rock buying Americans, I'm going to sail off the edge.

Really? A rock in a pouch. I looked it up, too. They are sold out online. Civilization as we knew it is doomed!
ReplyDeleteBack to the stone age.
DeleteWhat, nobody remembers pet rocks from back in the day?
ReplyDeleteYes, people are that stupid and it's generational.
Follow a stupid kid home and you'll soon figure out why he's the way he is.
Deletevicki, don't say you have no memory of pet rocks.
ReplyDeletesixbears is too young or he would have sailed away already as a baby.
I remember it. Can't believe the gag has come back and is now been upscaled too.
DeleteWelcome to the USA Reality Show! Critical thinking has no place in this broadcast.
ReplyDeleteSigh . . . true.
DeleteMy friend in Texas is always using the term "dumb as a box of rocks" when referring to certain people. Guess she's right. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteYikes indeed!
DeleteI remember pet rocks and, no, I didn't have any. I thought that was stupid when you could go outside and pick up any rock that suited your fancy, that is, if you wanted to. . .
ReplyDeleteOne would think there was enough rocks in their heads . . .
DeleteOh come on Sixbears, you are only envious you didn't think of doing it your self first. LOL.
ReplyDeleteAmerica is the greatest country in the world. You have one idiot who paints a rock and there is always another one who will buy it from him. Got to love that. LOL
The power of marketing, I suppose.
DeleteAnd where will you go to escape the box-of-rocks mentality and the land of idiots? Good luck finding anyplace that's not as dumb ...
ReplyDeleteIsolated islands where people have to deal with real life to survive?
DeleteGet your chainsaw saw tuned, you can make a mint.
