This is a question Amazing displays of ignorance

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

Sorry, I can't see you because my world view is too narrow...
Last year some time a colleague mentioned to me in an email that she'd seen a good film the night before, but said I wouldn't like it "as there were no robots or car chases in it".

I thought this a little strange, but didn't comment until a few weeks later when she told me about another film she'd enjoyed. This time I wouldn't like it as "there weren't any robots or explosions".

Curiosity got the better of me and I fired a quick reply back asking why she thought my exclusive criteria for a film were robots, car chases and explosions.

Her answer? Because I'd been to the cinema to see Transformers 2 and Terminator: Salvation

to be fair to her though, they are both utterly shit films

I prefer the term "enjoyable bollocks" :)

Indeed.
I quite enjoyed Terminator Salvation. Turned Transformers 2 off after 40 mins the other day though. Megan Fox and big explosions were not enough to get me through the awful '1st day at college' sequence.

It's the kind of thing your Mum would do
In HMV, ca 1986, with Mum in HMV. She stands over the other side of the shop and holds up a cassette of Wham and shouts "What about this, you like pop music don't you?"

Shame forever.

Why was my mum taking you to HMV?

To pay me off and stop me talking about that time at band camp

Something tells me
She knew exactly what she was doing. Mums are devious like that.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Mums, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

A more logical deduction on her part
Would have been that you like the feeling of both your arse and brain going numb at the same time.
