Idiots to the left and Idiots to the right

[SeaCat]

So my wife and I decided to head to the beach to check out the waves.It was warm, it was windy. It was threatening rain and there weren't many people on the beach at all. The waves weren't as bad as I expected but they were bad enough.

(This is a shot down the beach.)We walked along for a bit checking out the signs of erosion.

(You can see the erosion in the foreground. In the background you can see how the water is running right up to the foundation of the building.)AS we were out there a group of dolts came onto the beach. Mamma Pudge, Pappa Pudge and their half dozen screaming brats.Pappa and Inbred number 1 immediatly go down and start playing in the surf even though the Life Gaurds had double red flags up. The Life Gaurds ran down to them and told them to get out of the water and Pappa Bear told them he had every right to be playing in the water.A short time later I came up to Pappa as he proudly watched his brat getting knocked down in the surf. I asked him politely that if he didn't want the lifegaurds to be bothering him he could move a short ways down the beach. He looked at me in shock while asking why he would do that. Why if he did that and his son got sucked out to sea the Life Gaurds wouldn't be able to help.

Here you can see Inbred #1 in the surf.Pappa Dolt even wanted to argue with me. It is his conviction that he doesn't have to listen to the Life Gaurds but they have to save his son from his stupidity.Alas, what can we do?

I thought that this was going to be another political thread and I was prepared to cop to being an idiot on the left.

Lifeguards and other first responders must get so frustrated having to rescue idiots and sometimes risk their own lives in the process.

We call this Natural Selection.

Cat,
If we're really, really, really lucky both Inbred #1 and Poppa Dolt will be caught by a riptide so powerful that the lifeguards won't be able to intervene. Assuming we're so blessed, Inbred #1 and Poppa Dolt will become Darwin Award candidates, simultaneously improving the gene pool and removing future entitlement payments funded by taxpayers.

Trysail, if we're going to assume, I would assume Papa Dolt was an incompetent manager in a cushy job, sexually harassing his associates and getting away with it because they're too afraid of losing their jobs to complain. The guy is obviously an asshole, and everyone knows the best way to succeed in the business world is by asserting your assholiness while at the same time kissing the proper asses.

That reminds me of when I was living in south eastern Virginia, right before hurricane Isabel hit. It was the worst storm to hit the area in 75 years, so there was some freaking out, and a lot of stupidity (both over preparing and under preparing).

Anyway, they put up a map of the areas under mandatory evacuation. They said that if you were living in that area and call 911, they would not respond if they thought there was any danger to themselves. So basically if it's bad enough that you're calling for help, they won't come. But they went on to say that anyone staying in one of those areas should write their name on their body in permanent marker in a couple of places to help identify their body during recovery efforts.

Of course, that probably wouldn't help much. Because the people who are idiot enough to stay are also idiot enough to think they aren't going to be the ones in trouble.

Damn! I was going to right, as usual

Serious contenders for a Darwin award.
Hope the lifeguards don't get hurt if they have to get them.

The truly annoying thing is, if Inbred #1 does drown, Pappa Dolt will sue the lifeguards for not doing their job.
Pity Inbred #1 won't be around to sue Pappa for being a shit father.

And if there really is any justice on Earth, a big storm swell will roll up and wash the entire Kallikak lot out to sea forever. Some people can best serve the world by acting as crab bait.

Thanks manque. I'd never heard Kallikak before, so I looked it up. Very interesting.

Can't the life guards just do a preemptive save of the child .... by holding the father under water for ten or fifteen minutes.

Where is Pamela Anderson and Mitch Buccanon when you need them?

My latest student teacher is also a lifeguard. She's nearly as tall as I am and a good solid girl. Believe me, if I were drowning, I'd rather have Dani come after me than some slip of a Hollywood manniquin.

I have done several water rescues even though I am not a Lifeguard. (I'm a SCUBA Diver trained in New England.)

On most of these rescues the common statement is how the person in trouble never realized the danger.

(The only times this hasn't been the case was with fellow divers.)

My most insane rescue was a lady who drove into a water retention pond. She pulled off the road to pull into a mall and ended up in the pond next to the entrance. She was pissed off because I broke the window to get her out of the car. (She didn't care that the car was completely submerged when I got to her, or that there were several Gators in the pond.) She actually threatened to sue me. I threatened to throw her back.

Too bad you didn't. Society, and especially the gators, would have been most greatful.

Papa dolt needs a boot shoved up his ass for endangering inbred #1! Inbred #1 and the other inbreds will not learn the proper 'respect the damn ocean/sea' lessons from him. You know you get a ticket for not having your child in a car seat for endangering the child. They should start giving out tickets for endangering your kids in the water as well.
