Occasionally we see people doing dumb stuff individually.

But it amazes me (shouldn't by now) when you see GROUPS of them all doing the same dumb thing.

The other day I went to the bank just before noon to get some cash.

As I approached, I saw a line of about 7 people standing outside where there are 3 ATM's.

I went inside to see a teller since I also wanted to make a deposit and I knew from experience that often there is only a minimal wait, or no wait, for a teller at this branch, when there is a line outside.

So I waited maybe 15 seconds for a teller.
Did my stuff, and left.

At this time I notice that the OTHER line, for the single ATM inside, has gone from about 3 to almost 10 people.  

As I leave, I notice that there currently is NO wait for a teller, which the people waiting for the inside ATM could easily see if they just turned around and looked!!

Out the door, and I see that the line outside for the other 3 ATM's is now up to about 12 or 15.

So I have two theories:
1.  Lots of sheeplike people without a clue.
2.  These are actually the lizard-like aliens who have people-like skin and lack the important 'not a dumbshit' gene.   Maybe I should get the special detector glasses.

Nope....That's the way we are...Most of the people out there with the ATM machines don't belong to that bank. Since all the ATM machines take other bank cards and charge them a fee, then anyone can use it....including aliens. [(:|)]

Perhaps the mind control towers are having technical difficulty, and the pathetic human she.... I mean people under our contr.... um, I'll get back to you.
