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.

I once sat in a pub...
... (The Sun, in Reading, in case anyone cares) and overheard the most staggeringly ignorant conversation ever on the next table.

Drunk Bloke A: It's Burns night tonight, innit? That's some scottish thing about this poet.

Drunk Bloke B: No, mate. It's an Irish thing where the Protestants used to burn the Catholics.

Drunk Bloke B then proceeds to harangue Drunk Bloke A for the next hour about this until Drunk Bloke A changes his mind and agrees.

I'll See That, And Raise You
My University Library, years back..

A couple of lads are having a chat on the table next to me, one pipes up:

"So, what are the chances of dying then?"

At this point, I couldn't help myself....

"Sorry to interject chaps, but to answer your question, I'd say that dying is pretty much unavoidable...."

I do that
Sometimes, when faced with someone who is both stupid and insistent that they're right, it's easier just to concede so they shut the fuck up about it.
