What does one have to do to make it on the "pathetically clueless" list? Here's a few starters.

- toss a butt on the sidewalk and give it a good foot twist to grind the dark deep ash into the concrete.......real attractive
- toss a butt anywhere but in the ashtray
- wear a bumper sticker that says my kid made the honor role.....BTW, absolutely no one cares
- circle the parking lot 13 times looking for a spot closer to the door
- park between the only 2 cars in the lot.....if you're that lonely and need human contact......visit Manhattan and ride the subways at rush hour
- park next to my car..........the only other car in the lot
- park in the handicapped spot..........even if you're handicapped
- leave your grocery cart in the middle of the isle to read the label on the Campbells tomato soup can

Don't you drink Sam Adams?
And we obviously let the pets rule our lives (at least until last summer).
Does that make you pathetically clueless?
What about the people that complain about gas prices yet drive tanks to work every day?
