IgnoranceI once was in a programming class where the task was "build a calculator". A student did one with buttons 1, 2, 3 all the way up to about 25 and then ran out of space on the screen. We've asked this before but liked it so much we're asking again: What's the best example of ignorance you've encountered?

seeing as we're being broad in our interpretation of 'ignorant'Jaw-dropping ignorance: it's not just the Americans. It's not just the chavs.
I was on a climbing trip in Equador and we'd found ourselves on a small flight diverted to Peru due to a series of volcanic eruptions closing down the airports around Quito. As is often the case, the bunch of obviously British guys on the plane are all clearly together, which became pretty uncomfortable when Toby, known also as 'the fizzing ball of hate', on hearing the news of our quite understandable delay and diversion, erupted "f**king Ni***ers, can't even fly a f**king plane"
And similar, for nearly an hour, despite abundant and increasingly desperate pleas for silence and rapidly eroding patience from the frankly excellent cabin crew...
