For our friends from other countries who may not have heard this expression before, in British slang, the term 'Dipstick' is used to describe someone of inferior intellect. [smilie=Prankster.gif]
We use the term too.

Having taken hazardous materials safety courses and having been around fuel tanks during removal, I am interested in the particulars of how that explosion was caused by a dropped dipstick. Not an easy trick. Maybe they ought to begin using non-sparking sticks. Or keep the dipsticks out of the hands of dipsticks ;)
