Pure Ignorance
What astonishingly stupid stuff have you overheard people saying? Tell us, and tell the world.

Cheap PCs
Working for a PC chain a few years back I was told a story from one of the outlets. They were selling PC cases for £20. A woman bought one and left happily. She came back the next day and complained that her PC didn't work. Oblivious to the fact that it was just a case and not a full PC. She demanded her working PC and said she wouldn't leave the shop 'till they'd replaced it. (They managed to get her out after a couple of hours)
This was made even worse by the fact that the manager anticipated the possibility of ignorant customers and had put a big sign in front of the cases explaining in big red letters that these were in fact just cases and not fully working PCs...
