IMO...Ignorance is just a lack of education or knowledge... Stupidity is the refusal to learn... How do you handle someone who is intentionally Obtuse?

throw books at their head and yell (at the top of my lungs) "what part of this don't you get!!" be seeing you

they are handled in a manner that is off-base, relative to the level of obtuseness..

roco

I handle them however I can

I imagine giving them "swirlies".....head dunking in really bad gas station toilets!!!


or I just imagine chopping off their feet with my imaginary axe.

LMAO! Nice visual, Gypsy!

Nice "Shawshank Redemption" imagery, by the way.
Everyone spells some things incorrectly every once in a while. Sometimes a spelling cop/bully will point out people's innocent mistakes just to feel superior;then there are people trying to appear educated and superior and spell everything wrong, syntax wrong, verb tense agreement wrong, etc...they're the ones that need to be called out on their bs. The other group of people I disdain are the folks whose postings look as if they had the family dog type it for them, yet they know it's full of mistakes. They are defiantly and militantly proud of their ignorance and refuse to change, which makes them stupid. I treat them as the segment of society that will ensure my voluntary employment for as long as I choose to work. Thank heavens for the idiots.

I fully agree, makes the rest of us look better

Sometimes you frighten me.

Anything in the groin area gets my attention.

i misspelled monk (munk) and it ruined my whole thread,i got like 1 response correcting my spelling,well i usually only get one response anyway but that isn't my point here people..i'm not obtuse or square

You once asked me if I was being intentionally obtuse in a thread. I didn't appreciate it and found it to be rather rude.

I squeeze them until they are reluctantly acute.

i shove a bottle rocket up their cornhole and light it.

metaphorically speaking...

yeah

Or is it that you squeeze them if they are cute?

Well of COURSE that too!

poke em with a stick repeatedly

When I saw this subject, my first thought was how the law of cosines was better than the law of sines in terms of dealing with obtuse angles. Call it a guess, but I think I was a bit off from where you were going.
