Dumpster 0 #1 August 23, 2006 Ok - So myself and the fine you ng lady who does payroll for our company, are talking about - stuff - and she asks "just what the hell does that mean, 'stupid is as stupid does' "? So I thought I'd throw that question out to the most reliable source of unbiased opinion I could find. Then I decided also to ask the fine folks here on DZ.com. Give up some input - and get the answer for Sandy so she'll be able to sleep tonight. Thanks in advance!! Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scoop 0 #2 August 23, 2006 Does it mean your stupid by your actions, not because your slow? I never really got it either to be honest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFXpert 0 #3 August 23, 2006 Stupid is defined by one's actions rather than what they do not know. Many would say Forrest was definitely not stupid.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eeneR 3 #6 August 23, 2006 My though...Your actions show your level of stupidity! you constantly do dumb shit and dont listen makes you stupid. Get over your head and get yourself hurt...stupid etc. Keep your self out of trouble means you are smart enough to realize and avoid. Really really smart book people can be really freaking stupid...She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #10 August 23, 2006 It means someone is still using a catch phrase from Forest Gump YEARS AND YEARS after the movie has come and gone. It hasn't made it to the point of being old enough to be referenced in conversation and it be cool again. You know, like Spaceballs, Dirty Harry or other similar quotable movies.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Umm........I still use many catch phrases from Forrest Gump. Just yesterday I replied to Billy, "That's good. One less thang." At least he thinks I'm funny.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
