Anderson! Come on man! This guy who called 911 about his phone might actually be not very smart. How can you be sure enough that this guy was drinking and not actually a bit retarded to make fun of the guy on your show?? I thought you were better than that!
Thanks Anderson, you made my day with this one!! His comment, "I'm not drunk, I'm just not very smart" would make a great t-shirt slogan.
Mr. Cooper, did it ever occur to you that the iphone 911 guy is mentally impaired? His voice pattern signalled to me that he was not intoxicated but disabled by brain impairment of some kind. He knew to dial 911 in an emergency when nothing else worked. He said he isn't very smart which is what many cognitively impaired people learn to say to people who expect them to know things they do not know. You may have made fun of a disabled man. You could be on your own ridiculist tonight.
