Update: Bearman said he could only think of 3 things so I changed the title.
Welcome to a new series here at Dummies of the Year! This will be the landing page for the Top Three to Ten Dummy IQ Post Series.
Taking Guest Posts!
I am looking for guest posts for this series. If you have 3 to 10 ways we could improve our skill in anything you find interesting, do the following:
- Write a post containing 3 to 10 ways we can learn more about whatever it is you want to teach us.
- Send me the post here: Contact Scholar Mel.
- Receive up to three byline links (Website, Twitter, Facebook, etc.).
I reserve the right to make your content more reader friendly and change the title so Google and Google searchers can find your content but I won’t change your post in any other way.
Your post must be original and not previously published either on the Web or in print.
You agree not to publish it anywhere else, including your own blog or Web site. You may, however, post a brief “tease” or summary on your site that links to the post.
Top Ten Dummy IQ
- First post coming soon!
I can usually only come up with 3 things to say.
Was ten too difficult? Shoots, I already wrote this post
I seriously thought I would get a Ten Tip Cartoon from the Bearman.
Update: Okay, three… there you go.
Crap…now I actually have to think of something.
(In a Monty Burns voice) “Excellent”
Why do we always have to improve things? I’d rather work on gaining weight or becoming more lazy or unlearning a language or something.
Then write that post.
Geez, interesting AND original? Man, picky, picky. So, do these skills have to be in blogging, or Internet stuff, or can I just expound on how to dig a better punji pit? Or more importantly, how to hide the body from the punji pit so the corpse dogs can’t sniff it out? (That’s an example, not necessarily anything I would know ANYTHING about……)
It can be just about anything you want John. Fire away
What are these ‘skills’ people are always talking about?
I might have to look this up.
I never learned what I know of as “skills”. More as ways of avoiding arrest or successful prosecution. You know, like keeping the body you chuck overboard from floating come spring.
Oh, you’re a member of the mafia, right? Facebook or real life?
Mafia? Good God, no! We Chicagoans just tend to prefer … more PERMANENT solutions to our problems. Don’t like the election turnout? “Lose” enough ballot boxes to get the count in your favour. Don’t like a particular law? Buy a better version from the best legislature money can buy. Don’t like your neighbor parking in the spot you cleared of snow? First offence, you pee in his gas tank, remove the valves from his tire stems (but leave the caps on loose, so it looks normal but all 4 go flat in about 30 minutes) and pee in the door locks when it’s well below freezing. Second offence? Take him swimming, with concrete fins. Or show him the rock quarry your dad used to work in, preferably head first from the rim.
See? Nothing devious, nothing sinister, nothing dramatic like mafia or gangs. Just simple, permanent solutions!
Uh… of course that doesn’t sound like the mafia. What was I thinking?
I have come to the conclusion that all of my readers are very talented people that are also blind because they can’t see the skill they possess.
Hmm…I want to play, but need to think on this a bit.
OMG, someone who actually might do a guest post!
All my other readers felt too stupid or were lazy.
PS: I still love all my other readers anyhow
