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.

4WD anyone?
Or how about the time I tried to explain to my ex-missus the concept of 4WD, and that not all cars are 4-wheel-drive.

Apparently she didn't get the concept of 4WD versus 2WD.

Her rebutle was "Honey, 2WD applies to motorbikes, 4WD applies to cars. It's that simple. I don't know who those marketing people are trying to fool!"

I tried to demonstrate the logic by borrowing a mate's remote controlled car and showing her how the rear drive wheels work at propelling the car forward and back.

"Yes, that's just a toy. It runs on batteries. They have to make the wheels spin like that. Cars run on petrol hence they go by themselves."

It was a short relationship.
