You know what's funny?

Stupid people. Stupid people are funny. I've come to that conclusion recently in an attempt to stop being so bothered by them. If not for their stupid antics, I'd have so much less to laugh at.
This morning I was in the cafeteria at work trying to buy some skim milk out of one of those rotating vending machines to go along with my cheese danish. As the display spins around and I search for my container of skim milk, a voice behind me pipes up, "Are you looking for skim milk?" I turn to see the gray haired kitchen helper who stocks the vending machines sitting at a table eating corn flakes. She tells me the skim milk is right there, right in front of me- see the 1% carton? And she says it with such confidence that suddenly, I'm the one who feels stupid- it's practically skim, I guess, though I don't know if that was her point or that she truly doesn't get it. Maybe that's not necessarily a stupid thing as it is an age thing. My grandmothers idea of skim milk was mixing whole milk with powdered milk. Maybe it's skim if you have to "skim" powder residue off the side of your glass, I don't know, but I guess I shouldn't care too much if the person stocking the vending machine doesn't really understand the products she's stocking. I can laugh at her ignorance rather than be annoyed by it and perhaps find some comfort in the fact that my arteries are pumping skim milk instead of whole!
