Nothing in Monte Carlo is understated, from the baubles to the yachts to the bank accounts. Now add traffic pile-ups to that list.

The Hope Diamond of fender benders unfolded yesterday in possibly the most conspicuous stretch of asphalt in the .75-square-mile principality — the round-about in front of the James Bond-worthy casino — when three blondes in a jelly-bean blue Bentley Azure ($363,000) scraped the rear of a white Mercedes-Benz S-Class (a paltry $91,000).

Dumb de Dumb Dumb Dumb
Dumb de Dumb Dumb Dumb
Dumb de Dumb Dumb Dumb
Dumb Blonde!
Dumb Dumb Dumb.

Management wishes to express that, contrary to the above posting, we not think all blondes are dumb, nor do we think all dumbs are blonde.

One of the comments in the comment section was priceless.

“guys it wasn’t her fault there was like totally a pine tree in the road and she swerved to miss it then there was like totally another pine tree and she swerved to miss that one too and when she hit the cars that damn pine tree was there again......then the air freshener fell off the rear view mirror”

we not think

Sheesh. Thus proving the point on not all dumbs being blonde - mine's brown with a tinge of grey.
