This is a question Amazing displays of ignorance

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

My Brother's girlfriend
He had used one of those "write to your MP about this pressing issue" sites to... well, to write to his MP. A few days later - and I recommend this because it's top bananas - he received a letter in the post in a HOUSE OF COMMONS envelope. Now this is pretty typical, it's mostly a boilerplate response of "I was glad to hear from you about [issue of the day], as you know the official position of my party is to fellate corporate executives and I personally have had my kneecaps removed to make it easier." But it was the first time the girlfriend had seen such so she was all agog to find out why PARLIAMENT was writing to him. He gets home from work and she excitedly hands him the envelope. He opens it and the "What is it? What is it?" begins.

"Oh, it seems I've won being an MP for a day," he deadpans.

"REALLY?!" She goggle-eyes.

"Yep", he responds, and proceeds to elaborate on this theme for a good five minutes before she finally twigs the wind-up.

MP for a day! I ask you.
