What do you call it when you do the same stupid thing over and over?

I read this joke and it got me thinking
of how many times I had tried the same things
again the flopped the first time..
I think I learn rather quickly..do you?
Two hunters got a pilot to fly them into the far north for
elk hunting. They were quite successful in their venture,
and bagged six big bucks. The pilot came back as arranged
to pick them up.
They started loading their gear into the plane, including
the six elk. But the pilot objected. "The plane can take
out only four of your elk; you will have to leave two
behind," he stated.
They argued with him; the year before they had shot six
and the pilot had allowed them to put all aboard, and the
plane was just the same model and capacity as this.
Reluctantly the pilot finally permitted them to put all
six aboard.
But when they attempted to take off and leave the valley
where they were, the little plane could not make it, and
they crashed in the wilderness.
Climbing out of the wreckage, one hunter said to the
other, "Do you know where we are?"
"I think so," replied the other hunter. "I think this is
about the same place where the plane crashed last year."

Hi raydene! That is a good one! It really is funny and I even called my hubby to read it so he will laugh with me. haha.. What a shame for those hunters when they can't just learn from one crash and have to crash again the next time. I wonder if there will be a sequel to that joke wherein there will be another crash or they will learn finally but will commit another kind of mistake. haha..Sound someone like I know..Oh I think it was me when I was so much younger! haha..
Take Care and God Bless! Happy Mylotting!

Einstein once said that the definition of insanity was doing the same thing over and over, and expecting a different result! I think I would just call it a vicious cycle!

Raydene, this is so good. There is also a lesson from it too. When you are the driver in a situation never give in to what you know is right.
