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?

Marriage Boxes(Slight repost)
My brother's getting married later this year. They've been planning the wedding for a few years. My brother is 6'4", his fiance is about 3'9".
I told his fiance that there are special 'marriage boxes' which are designed for the, uh, shorter lady, so that when there's that photo of their first married kiss, it doesn't look awkward. These are beautifully designed boxes which fit in with your marriage decor, etc.
She looked them up on Amazon- and there were none! "Oh dear, they must have sold out," said I, and offered to make her one with a shoebox and some acrylic paints.
She only realised she was being wound up a few months later, when I asked her if she wanted me to tape some decorated pringles tubes onto her shoes for the first dance...
