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?

I suppose it's easy to be cynical in this day and age, but back then we really did believe in what we were doing.
About six of us had dressed up as barbers and taken over the town hall at gunpoint. Luckily the mayor didn't know that one of the shotguns wasn't loaded, and we managed to secure the building before the redcoats arrived.
Before long the air was resounded with volleys of rifle fire and cannon roar and so forth. We were particularly unlucky in that one of the regiments of soldiers that was sent to attack us was, due to a clerical error, composed entirely of actual tigers. Of course in later years many of my compatriots quite liked a Tiger when it was an economy, but back then of course we had to shoot the tigers in the face so they wouldn't eat us.
This was a task that we faced with no relish, for most of these tigers were decent honest working class animals of the genus Panthera Tigris. They weren't responsible for this war, but they were our foe, and one guy who was there was really ignorant.

I like the way that internet types
reward themselves with titles that they didn't earn and don't deserve. Doctor this, Professor that, Captain the other. What are you compensating for? While you're mulling it over, if you are in fact a Doctor (PhD or Medical, I don't care) then why are you frolicking in the faeces if the interweb with the supposed low IQs, the like of which can be compared to dumb kids versus your towering intellect?

Surely it can't be because you desperately need to feel superior because in real life, you are not afforded that well-deserved courtesy? You get to be a self opinionated autonomous bully and no one is allowed to hit you back? Can it be that no one reads your blog? Inferiority complex perhaps? Not physically attractive, maybe? Single? Crying inside?

you don't matter
to anyone.

EDIT but at least you don't call yourself Wing Commander Gvpyczjppcl.

I like the way you line up behind a well established internet verbal toughboy and then step out from his shadow and deliver your witty expression as though he's your bad lad gang leader and you get reflected glory from his hard-isms. Welcome to being his bitch.

that this isn't an RPG forum.

I should also point out that this is not the place where thousands of internet watchers
observe your wit and say 'OH well done, that man' and pray they can get a Panini sticker album based on 'My favourite dour acerbic web forum commentators who think they're better than they are' and pray for a golden Gvpyczjppcl sticker to complete their collection.

Nope. You're a nobody, and if this is the height of your popularity then you ain't never going to amount to nothing.

Work in the morning.

I would 'alt:prick' but there's no need for the alt.
