>>Another is the thoughtless kind who make stupid mistakes with people and other things, like opening the sealed evil in a can -- the "poor impulse control" type.<<
Reminds me of a story I read once:
A) The guy was a guest on a military base...
B) ...he decided to open a door that was papered with "Do Not Open" signs in literally every language spoken on base, under the logic that his hosts were stupid...
C) ...and didn't even have time to proceess that he was dying before being actually dead.
They did manage to return the body with some sort of diplomatic message after they'd solved the problem: a killing-cold supernatural entity that had been dealt with the first time by locking it in a salt-powered freezer.
