'Millionaire'
Contestant Makes Worst Use Of Lifelines Ever
NEW
YORK - Idaho resident Kathy Evans brought humiliation to her friends and family
Tuesday when she set a new standard for stupidity with her appearance on the
popular TV show, 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.'
It seems that Evans,
a 32-year-old wife and mother of two, got stuck on the first question, and
proceeded to make what fans of the show are dubbing 'the absolute worst use of
lifelines ever.'
After being introduced to the show's host Meredith Vieira,
Evans assured her that she was ready to play, whereupon she was posed with an
extremely easy 0 question. The question was: 'Which of the following is the
largest?'
A) A Peanut
B) An Elephant
C) The Moon
D) Hey, who
you calling large?
Immediately Mrs. Evans was struck with an all
consuming panic as she realized that this was a question to which she did not
readily know the answer.
'Hmm, oh boy, that's a toughie,' said Evans, as
Vieira did her level best to hide her disbelief and disgust. 'I mean, I'm sure
I've heard of some of these things before, but I have no idea how large they
would be.'
Evans made the decision to use the first of her three lifelines,
the 50/50. Answers A and D were removed, leaving her to decide which was
bigger, an elephant or the moon. However, faced with an incredibly easy
question, Evans still remained unsure.
'Oh! It removed the two I was leaning
towards!' exclaimed Evans. 'Darn. I think I better phone a friend.'
Using
the second of her two lifelines on the first question, Mrs. Evans asked to be
connected with her friend Betsy, who is an office assistant.
'Hi Betsy! How
are you? This is Kathy! I'm on TV!' said Evans, wasting the first seven seconds
of her call. 'Ok, I got an important question. Which of the following is the
largest? B, an elephant, or C, the moon. 15 seconds hun.'
Betsy quickly
replied that the answer was C, the moon. Evans proceeded to argue with her
friend for the remaining ten seconds.
'Come on Betsy, are you sure?' said
Evans. 'How sure are you? Duh, that can't be it.'
To everyone's
astonishment, the moronic Evans declined to take her friend's advice and pick
'The Moon.'
'I just don't know if I can trust Betsy. She's not all that
bright. So I think I'd like to ask the audience,' said Evans.
Asked to vote
on the correct answer, the audience returned 98% in favor of answer C, 'The
Moon.' Having used up all her lifelines, Evans then made the dumbest choice of
her life.
'Wow, seems like everybody is against what I'm thinking,' said the
too-stupid-to-live Evans. 'But you know, sometimes you just got to go with your
gut. So, let's see... For which is larger, an elephant or the moon, I'm going to
have to go with B, an elephant. Final answer.'
Evans sat before the
dumbfounded audience, the only one waiting with bated breath, and was told that
she was wrong, and that the answer was in fact, C, 'The
Moon.'

Some
guy bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it
in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: 'Free to good home. You want it,
you take it.' For three days the fridge sat there without even one person
looking twice at it. He eventually decided that people were too un-trusting of
this deal.
It
looked too good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: 'Fridge for sale
.'
The next day someone stole it!

While
looking at a house, my brother asked the estate agent which direction was north
because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning. She
asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?' When my brother explained that the sun
rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook her head and said, 'Oh, I
don't keep up with that stuff'

My
colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we overheard one of
the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she got on her weekend
drive to the beach. She drove down in a convertible, but 'didn't think she'd get
sunburned because the car was moving'.

My
sister has a lifesaving tool in her car it's designed to cut through a seat belt
if she gets trapped She keeps it in the trunk.

I
was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring attached to
an earring by a chain. My friend said, 'Wouldn't the chain rip out every time
she turned her head?' I had to explain that a person's nose and ear remain the
same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned...
***They
Walk Among Us!!!!!!! ***

I
couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to the lost
luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled
and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in
good hands. 'Now,' she asked me, 'Has your plane arrived yet?'...

While
working at a pizza parlour I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He
appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4
pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. 'Just cut it
into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.
***Yep,
They Walk Among Us, too.!!!!!!!!

not only do they walk among us, they also
