This is a question Ignorance

I 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?

One morning I came in and we exchanged pleasantries. I told them I'd seen Nikita the night before. "What did you think?" they enquired.

"It was OK - not as good as The Assassain " I said.

One of them actually started coughing. I got a chubby at that.
