Over in mock_the_stupid, littlekatydid relates a funny story:

So... two of my classmates had an interesting adventure this week. We'll call them doornail and dirt - two things that are surely smarter than either of them.


Doornail has no driver liscence.
Dirt does.


So, Dirt takes Doornail to a parkinglot where they proceed to drive around until Doornail can follow commands fairly quickly and "has the hang of" this driving thing.

They then go out on the road where Doornail promptly drives off the road into the ditch.


This might be an appropriate place in the story to mention: Doornail is completely BLIND!

Comments for a while are your basic "whoa wtf lol." And then jodied comes along.

It's exceedingly rare for someone to be COMPLETELY blind. Most people who are blind have at least some light perception, if not shape recognition.

littlekatydid, instead of going the hi-not-the-point-but-thanks-for-playing route, replies, ...and light perception makes it less stupid to start driving exactly HOW?

Aaaaand they're off! I'd include highlights, but it's a pretty short wank - the major part of it is the argument between littlekatydid and jodied, though further down a couple others chime in and there are some struggles with basic math.
