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 got a crapload of these
but here's one to illustrate the problem of being to clever for your own good.

Mr Cleverpants trying to be clever says every so smugly, "Yeah, I been to America. You don't know anything about it. You probably think Kansas City is in Kansas".

Funny thing is that a good part of Kansas City is in Kansas. And it has to be the most inane piece of trivia to roll out to lord over someone.

But that's my opinion on trivia in general. Trivia is to intelligence what silicone is to breasts. It's there to give the appearance of a desirable trait.

Everything's up to data in Kansas City.
Kansas City, Missouri, and Kansas City, Kansas, are two different cities that happen to share a name. US cities, being creations of the states they are located in, don't cross state borders.

that's my point exactly.
You think you are being clever and someone else comes along who knows 8% more than you, and suddenly you're not so clever.
