Welcome!

We can all say stupid things at times. But have you ever heard someone say something so overwhelmingly, mind-numbingly, face-palmingly stupid that you felt the urge to share it with the whole world? We have. That's why we invented WhoInventedFoxes.com.

Here's a random selection of what we have to offer. Reload the page for more quotes.

Overheard staff member in bookshop: "This says Pluto's a planet. Should we still be selling it now we know it's a star?"

Yes. Keep it for the little starlings.

"How to get YouTube.com come film you? I have been calling, calling and calling YouTube like crazy to get to come film some videos for me but they won't come. I do not understand how other people get there [sic] videos on YouTube. YouTube needs to come film me because I have some funny stuff to show the Internet."

Can we find out this guy's email address?

Someone should register YoutubeAdmin@yahoo.com or something and send him an email. :)

Hmm. A "Complaints" category, perhaps?
    Posted by JT on 15 Sep 2009.
But called what? People will assume "Complaints" is what they need to click if they want to complain about WIF...
    Posted by JT on 15 Sep 2009.
I think it fits in "Travel" with the other recent submissions.
    Posted by Wrongfellow on 15 Sep 2009.
Fair enough - but I think there might be a place for it in the future, because shop staff and sales assistants have to meet the public face-to-face far more than anyone would choose so we may get several submissions of that type in future.

I would have thought sandblasting would be quite effective, but if this doesn't shift it, try hydrofluoric acid.
    Posted by Wrongfellow on 2 Jan 2010.
Or hydrochloric acid.

Yeah, I've seen this one :)
    Posted by Wrongfellow on 7 Oct 2009.
Actually, that does make sense, now that I think about it.

That or: "Keyboard not found. Press any key to continue." I got it once.
