Helpless idiots are the people who are so pitiful that they make you want to slap them. They usually can't get anything done without asking at least three people of advice or assistance. Then, if anything gets done, it takes forever and involves tons of whining and complaining.
These people usually expect handouts, whether they come from the government, family, or friends. Honestly, they don't care who these handouts come from or if the person can even afford to help them. They just know that they are entitled and think that everyone else should recognize that and fall into line.
Facebook gives me the opportunity to see more of these idiots than anything. One person wrote that she didn't have any real friends because no one would give her a car to take to North Carolina. Another person wrote that they couldn't trust anyone from a particular church because the congregation wouldn't give her money.
One post in particular that I saw this week was begging for help because she had to have sources by noon of the next day for a research paper. First of all, she didn't understand what she should have been looking for - she kept asking people to give her magazine articles. She was posting this to Facebook at 9 p.m. the night before she had to have the sources. She never said what she was writing about, either. Trying to be helpful, I sent her a link about UNA's research consultations in the library. She responded with:
"I learn by hands on. reading does nothing for me=/ but I thank you so much for getting that for me."
Helpless idiots just don't want tools that show them how to improve things. They simply want everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.
