This trope is, by its nature, a reaction. The image shows something that is the candidate for such a reaction (i.e. something someone might reply to with "That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard"), but it fails to show that reaction. We need someone actually saying that something is the stupidest thing they've ever heard, or some variant. Something along the lines of a panel of a webcomic depicting a character saying a phrase similar to the one used in the page quote.

No good candidates immediately spring to my mind, but I'll look. Anyone else know of a good image?

Is that the entirety of the cartoon? I remember Dilbert being 3 or 4 panels, so that might be copyrighted.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

[up] The edit reason when putting the image up was

this is part of a Dilbert comic strip, for the page image

I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!

If it's a Sunday strip, then it's not the whole thing.

No, that's not the whole comic. Also, Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
