I suppose his "buyer's" point of view is "Why buy the car, when I can just buy a badge?" But I think people who stick up-market badges on their cars are just wasting money because they're only fooling themselves (and making a fool of themselves in the process) :D !

I think that they are so stupid they think they are fooling others. Stupid people do not know that they are stupid. :)

There is a lady I know of who is stupid. She once said to me 'I may be blonde but I am not stupid'. What I think she meant was 'I may be stupid but I am not blonde' as her blondeness comes from a bottle !! :rolleyes::D

"I might be stupid but, I'm not a fool" is another - however, I'll stick to my premise that stupid people do not know that they are stupid. They are too stupid to realise it!

How do you know that you're not stupid? :)

The other problem is that you cannot reason with a fool :rolleyes:

My education, IQ tests and the fact that I'd be doing The Times crossword on the train when many other adults had their noses buried in Harry Potter books moving their lips as they read:);):).

This thread always brightens my day. I particularly enjoyed the C180 AMG Kompressor in Mancmans post #548 above.

Takes some doing to get the AMG badge as wonky as DA13 XHD above.
