Now Miss Stupid is one of the “POD PEOPLE”.
Damned. How much money did her parents spend on sending her to college so that she could kill herself with a soap pod?
I wonder what class she learned that in - “Abnormal Stupidity”?
To: LukeL
See, this is why we can't have nice things things that cost a lot more but save you the 12 seconds it would take to measure and pour in detergent, so you can spend those 12 seconds on Instagram watching people do stupid things and thinking, "Hey! I'll try that! Hold my beer!"

The college apparently has no admissions standards based on intelligence.

Utah State University’s average SAT score is 1150-ish. However, even objectively bright college students do stupid stuff.

Who are these people? Tide Pods are expensive.
The Drano challenge would be much cheaper.

Equal in degree of stupid, but different in kind. 2-year-olds eat household cleaning products because they’re babies and don’t know any better.
18-year-olds eat household cleaning products because they saw it on Facebook or Instagram and believe it will get them positive attention from their peers.

Yep.
Honestly, a college student? Not a 6-year-old?
