How dumb can you get? · 5:45pm Sep 9th, 2018
I just have to wonder... How stupid can you get?
(Meredith) – Authorities in Kuwait reportedly shut down a seafood market for sticking plastic googly eyes on fish to make them appear fresher.
BBC reported that a video of the bizarre display surfaced on WhatsApp last week. Images were later shared online by news outlet Al-Bayan.
In one of the photos, a googly eye is seen slipping off the fish after a customer took it home and began cleaning it, according to the newspaper.
People everywhere are crazy or stupid. Sometimes both, the hard part is knowing when which is happening at the moment.
I cannot describe the incredible motions my chest made in uproarious laughter upon seeing this. I am at a loss for words. Thank you, Bricklayer, for introducing this wonderfully useless information into my dull life.

Ok, who is the dumb one here? The one that put the eyes on the fish or the people that shut down the market?

I'd say the market, given I wouldn't trust them if I learned there was a chance these fish weren't exactly... fresh.
You live in Connecticut?

No, not really. Florida, about the farthest place you can be from Connecticut in every sense of the word.
I'd say that whomever thought that putting the googly eyes on fish was insulting their customers' intelligence, except for the fact that someone fell for it.

On the internet, you never know how people think. And agreed that the market is the idiot here.
I would worry about the future of the human race but thats just priceless!
Though there are more unscrupulous practices people have made to make a living. Some with dire ramifications so despite the silliness, eating bad fish is no joke. For reference, imagine the baked bads Applejack made for Ponyville.
