Are people really this stupid?

It boggles my mind the stupidity of people. I'm watching Wheel of Fortune which I rarely do and a puzzle comes up in which the contestant calls for an "O" when she's looking at the puzzle that reads "SP.G..TTI and Meatballs."

BTW, she didn't make it to the bonus round.

If you have to ask…….

[chajin]

She probably has spoghetti and meatballs at home on a regular basis.

[nuconvert]

Spoghetti . They flunked spelling

[Deaf Smith]

Spaghetti O’s?

[dynachrome]

Sounds like the “nagger” episode from South Park.

[NorthMountain]

Half the population is below average.

[Jonty30]

spaghettios.

[crusty old prospector]

In before the naggers meme.

[D Rider]

What? Spoghetti and meatballs, of course.

[pa_dweller]

I’ve thought this. Then I consider that some ordinary Joe realizes they’re on national TV, lights, all the fuss, trying not to fumble... and I make allowances.

[fidelis]

That was my thought. It might be a matter of nerves rather than intelligence.

[Jonty30]

To be fair, I’ve read interviews from people who have played on Wheel of Fortune and they say that the game is more difficult to play in the studio than how it looks at home.

[nickcarraway]

I love spogotti! It’s delicious.

[Blurb2350]

She probably knows it as B-I-S-K-E-T-T-I.

[EEGator]

I got a week off for that once.
Total BS...

[rlmorel]

Hahahahahahaha I remember my younger sister pronouncing it that way when we were little!

[Skywise]

Not only is she asking for an O - was she actually asking for a vowel or did she think it was a consonant?!

[algore]

at least 81 million and probably many more in a few years

[Hostage]

I have Spoghotti every daggum week!
