I’m in the middle of negotiating with a really stupid man from whom I’m trying to buy a car. He’s a used car dealer but forget about those scum-bags who lie and cheat people and sell them bad cars. This guy is just plain stupid.
He can’t grasp anything that’s written on more than two or three lines. A 20 line e-mail penetrates his head for maybe 20 words then he’s forgotten what he read two sentences ago. The first sentence gets forgotten as his brain replaces the first sentence with the second sentence and the third sentence replaces the second one and so on until he reads 20 sentences and remembers only one or two points. He not mean of crafty but dumb. I’m getting a terrific deal and I’ve agreed with him but he’s in the middle of some kind of weird brain wiring so I’m not sure exactly what’s going on. I’ll probably buy the car but he might just screw things up so much that he won’t sell it. While this is very, very funny to me, he’s upset, he’s missing the point and he’s too dense to know just what he want’s. So I may not get the car but there are loads of great cars around and loads of deals. I repeated a phrase he wrote and he forgot he wrote it and accused me of doing what he admitted doing himself. This is witless that’s really more than un-believable.
Sigh.. Anyhow,… this is how wars start when people can’t figure out what’s really going on.
