'Tis better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. -- Abraham Lincoln, (attributed) This is a good reason to watch what you say. Most people in this life have absolutely NO filter between their brain and mouth. I like to call this little happenstance FIM (Foot In Mouth) syndrome. This is where the person just says the most idiotic, stupid and ridiculous thing you could think they'd ever say at the worst possible moment. I just look at those people and wait for them to fix it themselves, but you know what?, they end up saying something stupider somehow. People can be quite surprising.
