There&#8217;s a text message to me from the good lady wife her indoors which says just that one word. This was sent earlier this evening for some trivial reason or other. &#8216;Twat&#8217; is fairly frequent too, but mostly heard from one of the two car drivers in the household. I use &#8216;Well you&#8217;re very clever&#8217; &#8211; again from the driving seat &#8211; for people who evidently aren&#8217;t clever at all. But when it comes to Internet-related things my favourite phrase without any question at all is &#8216;You can&#8217;t teach stupid&#8217;. This is unfortunate because the Internet tends to show us a great deal of stupid (if you know where to look). When I feel a bit glum I nip over to a certain page in FB which rounds up and aggregates FB posts from the UKs police officers. This is where &#8216;You can&#8217;t teach stupid&#8217; comes into its own.
