That’s some stupidity, all right (working in collaboration with its close colleague, drunkenness). The fight started because Sanchez objected to the guy parking his truck at the loading dock to drop off new/collect used fryer oil. Why the hell would he possibly care? Did he think it was his retirement grease? ---

Oh, of course. Lots of people run wind sprints at midnight in an alley while stinking drunk. That makes sense. ---

Of course, it’s fair to judge Sanchez for being ridiculously drunk at all. But running wind sprints in a back alley isn’t even close to the stupidest thing anybody has done while drunk ---

> [@Great\_Antibob](#): > > But running wind sprints in a back alley isn’t even close to the stupidest thing anybody has done while drunk I heard one time a guy tried to attack an elderly delivery driver for parking his truck while drunk and got stabbed as he beat the guy, and also ignored pepper spray. ---

Nominating the makers of Fluzone for using AI of a snarling wolf as a symbol of influenza in TV ads, to encourage use of their flu vaccine. Yeah, make us fear and loathe wolves, so more can be shot and trapped with fewer people caring. ---

That’s evil, not just stupid IMO. You have large Rottweiler dogs and you run an unlicensed daycare where you take a nap and leave a kid unsupervised. ---
