Americans and geography
To be fair, my US geography is pretty shaky too, so we can hardly blame them for not understanding Europe. However, I was pretty sure the woman who had phoned to sell me a holiday was wrong in suggesting that if I wanted to visit Disneyland I could always get a bus from New York. I was considering a weekend break.

Oh, and another classic from the ex who thought the special effects in Casablanca were rubbish. She had a temp job selling loans over the phone and spent several minutes explaining to a bemused bookmaker all the things he could do with the extra capital, such as buy paper, new printing and binding equipment, etc. Yes, I was still dazzled by her fantastic breastage at this point in the relationship.
