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.

history lesson
I had to explain who hitler was to our 18 year office assistant who wanted to know if he was a nasty man. The explanation took half hour after she realised that second world war came after a first world war. This led to a discussion on the titanic (around the same time) and then a geography and maths lesson to show where the wreck was and that an A4 scale map of the world is just that - a scale map, so it would take longer than an hour to swim out to the coast of greenland.

Hahahaha
I saw an awful documentary on racism and discrimination in London. In it they featured a chav girl of about 16 or 17 who lived in Stamford Hill (East London and a Jewish area), who hated Jews ... for some reason.

There was footage of her standing outside a synagogue, SCREAMING at the top of her voice "I fuckin' 'ate you fuckin' Jews! I fuckin' 'ate you ... I'm gonna be like ... like ... like that bloke ... that bloke what killed a load of Jews or summink ... that bloke ... "

Her mate standing nearby suddenly got it and said "Duh ... what ... you mean ... Hitler ... ?"

"Yeah! I'm gonna be like Hitler, you fuckin' Jews! I'm gonna kill you all ..." god it would have been funny if it weren't so depressing.

Are you absolutely sure this wasn't justa fantastic way to get off a few hours work? ;-)

unfortunately they didn't need to get off a few hours of work..
Because they hardly did anything to warrant a work break in the first place. This was the same person that (at two weeks shy of her 18th birthday and holding a age related price list for a theme park) asked if she was a senior citizen as she was not a child and not yet an adult. They also asked if bonfire night was in august as that was when a firework display was being held. I will say though that trying to explain how a world map printed on a sheet of A4 paper was not in 1:1 scale made me think of father ted.
