Unbelievable:

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 shows host Meredith Vieira, Evans

assured her that she was ready to play, whereupon she was posed with an

extremely easy $100 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? Puh,

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.'

She doesnt look like the brightest bulb in the house... but seriously?! A cow or the moon... I hope she wasnt thinking proportions from view, which would validate. But then you have to ask, why would she consider that?!....

 

But what even baffles me more is, if she passed the fastest finger thing.. She must have known this. She is a waste of Space... Nuff' said....
