Someone said this before.
She has to go. American Idol is entertaining. She is an idiot. I swear she is drunk or on something. No one can be that stupid.
And, can she give constructive criticism? I mean, is she really that insecure that she needs everyone to like her?

Dude, if you don't think people can be and are as stupid as Paula Abdul, then you haven't met enough people, and certainly not the right people.
Work as a temp in an industry that isn't typically filled with college educated people for a while. I've done that when in between career-type jobs. LOTS of stupid people out there.
Just as an example, I met a woman at one of these places who was 100 pounds overweight EASILY. She told me one day that she learned to eat from her parents, and that she had the same thing for breakfast every day because she didn't know what else to make. The breakfast? -- french toast made with a STICK of butter, peanut butter between two pieces of toast, and then covered with syrup and powdered sugar. She ate this every day. She said to me, "Sometimes I just want to eat an apple. Would that be better?" She actually had NO idea about calories or healthy eating. I worked with this woman for 10 months. She told me this about 6 months in. I directed her to a calorie counting book and gave her some VERY basic healthy eating tips. In the last 4 months I worked with her, she lost 60 pounds. A year later I saw her again and she had lost all 100 pounds. Nice lady, but dumb as dirt. That's just one example. I worked with another lady who thought that a fax machine would actually TRANSPORT THE ITEM to the chosen destination. What is this, Star Trek?
Paula Abdul is Einstein compared to a lot of the mouthbreathers around out there.
ha, I want a fax machine like that!
It is a fact that Paula has a drinking problem and has appeared on shows while intoxicated.
Actually, it sounds like the woman you speak of wasn't dumb as dirt, just very ignorant. I mean, if she was able to follow your tips and lose 100 lbs in a few months she must not be a total idiot.
True story:
My wife and I were moving to a new house. I had changed the locks, had keys made, put them on her ring and took her around the house to show her they worked.
The NEXT DAY, I went there to do some painting. She was to show up some time later. I left to go to Lowes and locked the doors. I was gone about an hour.
When I returned, she was sitting on the porch and I could tell she was furious. I asked her how long she had been there and she said close to an hour. I asked why didn't she just go inside and she said, "Duh, because the doors are locked."
I said, "Ever thought of using your keys?"
She said, "Oh."
I wish I was making this up.
