Ignore them.

If you're ignorant, you just don't know.

If you're stupid, you don't know, but you really should by now. And there's probably very little hope of ever teaching you.
Your comparison of the terms are correct. And I could very well ignore them, I have done so for around 2 years now on Camaro5. I choose my sites that I restrain myself on, which includes forums that I moderate. I'm just giving fair warning to the general populace that I've decided to stop ignoring stupidity on thie site.

No that is NOT my point. I'm not one to jump on the "DO A SEARCH" bandwagon for every single repetitive thread...even if I do feel that a brief search should be done on anything you're willing to ask. The point is, there is a lot of information to shift through on here now, and searching my be an inefficient answer. It would be IGNORANT of me to expect a noob to know where to find the answers of his pressing questions and frustrations. It would be STUPID of me to simply answer "DO A SEARCH" if I myself did not conduct one to prove that the answer is plain and simple to find.

As a race, America thrives on stupidity and almost encourages it (see: Myspace, youTube comments, Barrens Chat)...(who gets that last one?).

The point of my thread here is that the stupidity that we have to allow run rampant, because society dictates it, bothers me to the point sometimes that I can not resist the urge to call it out for what it is. And the effed up part of the situation is technically that makes me the aggressor...and the guilty party.

some people just need to quit being lazy & at least read the first post all the way through before hitting the 'quick reply'

sorry if i get in trouble for ranting like this, but i thought somebody should say something, so i figured the 'If I get banned...' thread would be the right place.
The essence of the thread is almost tangible, isn't it?
