Celebrating 15 years of mind-blowing success—and supreme stupidity! The #1 top-selling black-and-white Page-A-Day is back with a whole new batch of shocking ignorance, malapropisms, foot-in-mouth moments, celebrity airheadedness, and government spin: "Rat complaints have gone up, but we see that as a positive thing, because more people know how to contact us now."—New York City complaints hotline bureaucrat. Plus hopelessly mixed metaphors, odd menu items, dumb tourist questions, and supermodel Naomi Campbell: "I love England, especially the food. There's nothing I like more than a lovely bowl of pasta."
I'm half of a brother and sister writing team who were born in the late 50s and raised in suburbia.
One of us wears glasses, one doesn't, and 50% of us is female. The other 50% is male -- and is taller than the other half.
We're the authors of the national bestselling "Stupidest" series - which includes the #1 bestselling page-a-day calendar "The 365 Stupidest Things Ever Said" (now in its 17th year -- with over 4 million copies sold), "Unusually Stupid Americans," "B is for Botox," "Jane's Guide to Dicks," and the just published "The Stupidest Things Ever Said Book of All-Time Stupidest Top 10 Lists" -- a collection of the stupidest of the stupidest. (You can visit us at www.stupidest.com and at janes-guide-to-dicks.tumblr.com)
Our work has received the attention of personalities like David Brinkley and Howard Stern and publications including the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, the Wall Street Journal, Playboy, Cosmopolitan, the Washington Post and the London Times.
One or the other (or both!) has/have been a guest on hundreds of radio shows and tv shows, including Good Morning America (about menopause), CNN (about bad poetry) and Fox and Friends (about Paris Hilton).
Oh, and one of us was a Jeopardy contestant (but, sadly, came in third - and only won a designer watch . . .).
AND...one final note: We're always looking for more stupidity -- so if you have a quote or photo that's wonderfully stupid, send it to us at stupidestcalendar@yahoo.com -- and let us know if you want credit if we use it in a calendar or book.
