When did we lose it? Did we ever really have it? I often wonder if we have it or just think we do! I am talking about common sense! I mean how many times do you hear someone say something and you are just wondering, "Where did their common sense go to?" We make jokes about it? "Here's your sign!" We laugh about the lack of it. But, when it comes to things like politics and medical or even school. You would think we would use more common sense. So can you name some of the things that you heard, saw or just want to talk about that deals with the lack of common sense in the world?

Like so many things it is becoming extinct. Ppl seem to be getting worse and worse about it and since it's often made into a joke ppl don't realize that it's actually not a joke. There are ppl out there that don't have the sense God gave a fruit fly and they think it's funny.

I think common sense is something some people just never have, I have said this for years, because it is something you do not learn at school, it is something you just can't learn from a book...I have never been a clever person as far as remembering things one had to learn to be classed as clever and pass exams but i feel in my up bringing my parents taught me common sense...I know a couple of young people today who have been to university and are classed as clever but i can't believe the lack of common sense, infact i think in that area they border on being stupid...I really think it is something you have to learn through the years but not from books...
