    the way I do it is dumb is stupid without harm.

    Stupid is dumb with harm.

    An example…

    Dumb is dropping your drill bit 3 times in a row, having to climb back down the ladder each time to get it.

    Stupid is dropping the entire drill on your friends unprotected head.

      I like this definition and will steal it as well as claim it as my idea for perpetuity, until someone checks me - because I am stupid.

      Or, instead, I’ll just misremember it when quoting it in conversation - because am dumb.

      Ladies and gentlemen, the real good vs evil metric. We’ve finally found it. It wasn’t good vs evil, but dumb vs stupid.
