Ah, we make 'em smart here!

Man tries to cash check for $360 billion.

I think my favorite sentence is "The personal check was not made out to Mr. Fuller and when the bank contacted the check owner, the woman said she did not write a check for $360 billion."

Did you see the guy's picture? I couldn't tell if the guy was just stupid or drugged out of his mind.

I believe those two are not mutually exclusive. XD

I wonder if he was actually high at the time that he dreamed this up. It would explain a lot.

Then again, so does terminal stupidity.

Only $360 billion, huh? Potheads have no ambition :/

I blame our educational system.

It may be just an unfortunate photograph, but he certainly doesn't look like the sharpest knife in the cutlery drawer.

apparently he thought the lady who wrote the check was like, richer than bill gates. :P

It just boggles the mind that he thought a check was a magic spell to receive any amount of money from the bank.

It's too bad they couldn't arrest him on being stupid.

Quick, ask him if he knows anything about the fetal pig!

The guy looks like living proof of the saying "Only dopes use dope".

How the hell was he planning on carrying that much cash anyway? 3,600,000,000 $100 bills (the highest in current circulation) would weigh 7,929,515 lbs (roughly) which would require a couple of tractor trailers to haul off.

Besides, who the hell has $360 billion to throw around? Even the government thinks twice about writing a check that big.

No, no. See, I've done marijuana. It makes you stupid (which is why I didn't do it more than a couple of times), but it doesn't make you that stupid. This guy was that moronic all on his own.

You were smart enough to realize that it makes you stupid, and stop. He's obviously not that bright, and the mary jane just made him even stupider.

Maybe he was stoned at the time and just got carried away with the zeros.
