It seems to me that it could be some type of "fashion" of being stupid, like if it is going to make you more popular...

"Ignorance is Bliss". Great, I have also gone throught that conclusion much before. Most of you, great answers, although I'm concerned about that poor guy dbatz, well I have lived and experienced with stupid professors before, I guess it's not that strange (I apologize if I have bad English, I'm not from a english-speaking country).

yea, i notice that trend too.
intelligence makes you different from the masses
If you are an outsider then you are not accepted.
period.
ignorance is bliss I guess....
thats true on so many levels.
But i still count my lucky stars that I have a good head on my shoulders! :)
But i think you have to WANT to learn, nothing in this society encourages TRUE learning, and REAL thinking.
Great question!

Easy question; -Because they don't know any better! And when you think about it, - isn't just about ANY kind of "fashion"- kinda dumb anyway?! Stupid people are ALWAYS going to be with us. So it's not going to help us if we let them get under our skin. The NEXT time someone who's a couple of fries short of a happy Meal- get's you annoyed, think of THIS; It could be worse, -that could've been YOU. !

You know, I've asked that many times. But what I've concluded is that they are too stupid to know they are stupid.
Now it's IGNORANCE that gets me. This does NOT imply a person is Stupid, simply ignorant of facts. They know these facts, they simply choose to ignore them. Then they force feed their ignorance on others. Demanding everyone else ignore the same things or beware their hatefilled rath.

Again here is a case of trying to do just the opposite of what people would think is most acceptable. In order to show how NOT CONCEITED they are.... THEY aren't going to act all SMARTY.... they go to the other extreme and act stupid.
Morons.

When I was younger it seemed that when the girls acted stupid everyone thought it was cute but when the guys acted stupid they got drafted!

To get attention, and its the only thing that they are good at, and they are bored with nothing else to do.
