10 on the Dumb-o-meter

But as long as your arms are down, you're good!

(And that title was an 11.)

Do you ever wonder how a stupendously idiotic decision gets ok’d when you are sure that there are a board of people sitting around a table voting on it. This is one of those times.

Bosses at a British amusement park said they banned patrons from putting their arms in the air during roller coaster rides due to concerns about body odor.

But they say nothing of banning Indian people from riding. WTF. Stinky pits is no match for a well phermoned Indian person. Nothing against Indian people in general but my Western nostrils do not compute their scent. Anyway, where were we?

Mike Vallis, director of Thorpe Park in Chertsey, England, said guests who do not keep their elbows at their sides will be kicked off rides, and repeat offenders will be escorted out of the park, The Sun reported Tuesday.

(Again, nothing about blockading the gates to keep Indian people from sitting next to me.)

“We’ve found that when the temperature tops 25C (77 degrees Fahrenheit) the level of unpleasant smells can become unacceptable, and we do receive complaints,” Vallis said. “Our rides are really scary, and people tend to sweat more than normal due to the fear and anticipation they experience while queuing up so it can get really pongy.

Really pongy? Is this an amusement park for the unbathed homeless? And anway, last I checked, an arm hanging at its side is not an air tight seal. If someone has stinky pits, you’re gonna know. For instance, sweaty balls are stinky. If you happen to be giving me a BJ, I don’t need to lift my nuts away from my body for you to be in the know regarding the odor emanating from the back side of my testicles. You’ll have a good idea when you’re at my belly button.

And what about dudes ripping ass and burping in line left and right? I presume they are ship shape to go on any rides they want?

Mike Vallis, you’re an idiot.
