Stupidity, Part II

[j4]

I went to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee, and noticed that the sugar bowl was empty, so I got the bag of sugar out of the cupboard. As I was doing this, a guy in a suit picked up the empty sugar bowl, looked at it, shook it, looked puzzled, and put it down again. Then I poured sugar out of the bag into the bowl. He looked surprised. "Thank you for doing the sugar," he said. "It's a good job somebody does it."

Well, true. In a way I expect academics to display less common sense.
