They Walk Among
Us

A reader sent me this story. Rocket scientists beware!
Idaho resident Kathy Evans brought humiliation to her friends and
family Tuesday when she set a new standard for stupidity with her
appearance on the popular TV show, Who Wants To Be A
Millionaire.
It seems that Evans,
a 32-year-old wife and mother of two, got stuck on the first
question, and proceeded to make what fans of the show are dubbing
“the absolute worst use of lifelines ever.”
After being
introduced to the show’s host Meredith Vieira, Evans assured her
that she was ready to play, whereupon she was posed with an
extremely easy $100 question. The question was:
Which of the
following is the largest?
A) A Peanut
B) An Elephant
C) The Moon
D) Hey, who you calling large?
Immediately Mrs.
Evans was struck with an all consuming panic as she realized that
this was a question to which she did not readily know the
answer.
“Hmm, oh boy, that’s a toughie,” said Evans, as Vieira did her
level best to hide her disbelief. “I mean, I’m sure I’ve heard of
some of these things before, but I have no idea how large they
would be.” |

Evans made the
decision to use the first of her three lifelines, the 50/50.
Answers A and D were removed, leaving her to decide which was
bigger , an elephant or the moon.
However, faced with
an incredibly easy question, Evans still remained unsure.
“Oh! It removed the
two I was leaning towards!” exclaimed Evans. “Darn. I think I
better phone a friend.”
Using the second of her two lifelines on the first question, Mrs.
Evans asked to be connected with her friend Betsy, who is an office
assistant.
“Hi Betsy! How are
you? This is Kathy! I’m on TV!” said Evans, wasting the first seven
seconds of her call. “Ok, I got an important question. Which of the
following is the largest? B, an elephant, or C, the moon. 15
seconds hun.”
Betsy quickly replied that the answer was C, the moon. Evans
proceeded to argue with her friend for the remaining ten
seconds.
“Come on Betsy, are
you sure?” said Evans. “How sure are you? Puh, that can’t be
it.”
To everyone’s astonishment, the moronic Evans declined to take her
friend’s advice and pick “The Moon.”
“I just don’t know if I can trust Betsy. She’s not all that bright.
So I think I’d like to ask the audience,” said Evans.
Asked to vote on the correct answer, the audience returned 98% in
favor of answer C, “The Moon.” Having used up all her lifelines,
Evans then made the dumbest choice of her life.
“Wow, seems like
everybody is against what I’m thinking,” said the
too-stupid-to-live Evans. “But you know, sometimes you just got to
go with your gut. So, let’s see. For which is larger, an elephant
or the moon, I’m going to have to go with B, an elephant. Final
answer.”
Evans sat before the dumbfounded audience, the only one waiting
with bated breath, and was told that she was wrong, and that the
answer was in fact, C, “The Moon.”

Probably have to
wrap a towel around their head to keep their brains from falling
out. Surely a credit to their species.

Hi
Well okay its sorta funny but then when you think about it, these
dumbo’s are loose in our society and may have contact with
children, with an I.Q lower than a worms belly what information are
they passing on? you’ve heard it said that some drivers are so bad
they should be made to take the driving test again, well I think
people who’s I.Q is as low as theirs should be made to go back to
school.

the real funny part of this is how stupid the people who read
this are and think its real neither of these are true..the first
story is completely fabricated that did not happen and the question
“which of the following is largest?” was never asked to this
particular contestant whos name has also been changed...the second
one im not even go into detail about ...if you believe that then
you deserve to sit at home chuckling into your pudding about
it...moron

The question is fake, try and find the video ... funny joke haha

This didn’t happen: http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/gameshows/millionaire.asp
The woman in that picture is Fiona Wheeler and the real question
was about human anatomy. This is appearing a lot at the
moment. Why isn’t there a video of this somewhere? If
it was true it’d be all over youtube. I feel obliged to point
out the irony in people commenting on how stupid someone was
without even taking the time to check if the story is true.

quite lousy photoshop work there. you need to try harder to
cheat people. Or better, create something genuine to make people
laugh. have some self respect.

both of those images are photoshopped and it’s done badly.
i’m not even trolling here but you can clearly tell from the
pixels. on the second image the text stands out and you can clezrly
see that it’s been rewritten

Fake
First one: http://www.hoax-slayer.com/elephant-moon-quiz-question.shtml
Second one: Obvious photoshop job, look at the font of the
question. It wouldn’t look like that if it were a real
screenshot. Also, look at the graph. I doubt 3% of
people voted for C, which wasn’t even a choice since she already
dropped two of the answers.
Now, don’t you gullible people feel stupid?

I’m thinkin what hitler was thinkin, but only retards. I don’t
have a problem with jews or anything, just those born dumb. They
should be exterminated. IQ test should be made manditory in primary
school, and those who score below 100 (thats being fair)should be
separated from the rest of society or at least killed. Experimented
on maybe. The point is, Hitler had the right idea about natural
selection, he just chose some of the wrong people. But he was right
about the retards. I’m not racist or anything, I just hate
idiots.

this is stupid, you can see it’s been put into paint and edited.
Everyone that belived this is an idiot!!
Joseph on Monday, May 04,

Hey Magicarp, you’re welcome to be the first one to follow your
“retard extermination ideology”. Getting agitated over a fake
Internet story and not reading any of the comments makes you
clearly look like a friggin huge idiot.
