Stories of unsurpassed brillianceThis "Week" The suggestion comes from Kroney who muses
"Whilst I was passing through Miami airport at the tender age of 21, I fancied a beer. "ID" said the charming Southerner behind the desk, so I got out my passport and showed it to her.
"You have to be 21," she said. Now this confused me slightly as I had been 21 for several months by this point and my date of birth was staring her in my face.
"I am 21," I replied helpfully "it says so there, look"
"You have to be 21", she said getting angry.
Cut a long story short, I argued, the manager came out, I argued with him before I finally realised that they weren't looking at the date of birth at all. They were looking at the date of *issue*
That would have made me an annoyingly precocious four year old. What examples of unsurpassed mental genius have you experienced?"""""""

It's not like her historical knowledge is anything to get impressed by, to be honestIf it's ancient kings and queens, she great. Anything from 1900 onwards and she's not got a clue.
Let's just be grateful that your mate and mine aren't involved in doing anything actually important for a living.

Too late. She's got 3 kids.Although to be fair they all seem pretty normal. One of them is a doctor.
