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.

Movies
I hold a weekly movie night gathering of friends, some of which are daft.
There's one in particular who loves to scream out when she's figured out a trick or secret or spoiler for movies - not only is this inconsiderate as fuck (which she is, not maliciously she just can't think of anyone but herself), she also looks around for confirmation of her brilliance in detective work and congratulations from all when she does it.
This would be annoying enough on it's own, I mean having every single movie you watch with someone spoiled is, well, it spoils things. But the part that drives me especially crazy is, she'll do this and seek approval for it - even when she's seen the movie before.
"Like, look what I figured out!!!" ... from watching it before.
It's a horrible combination - imagine watching Star Wars for the first time, and half way through she'll scream out "oh! He's his father!" or "Oh! That's his sister!" or "Oh! R2 has his saber!" and look around for a pat on the head like she's done *good*...
We've explained to her time and again that it's not appreciated nor a -nice- thing to do, but she's apparently physically unable to be considerate of others =/
Oh, he's kaiser soze!
Oh, he's dead!
Oh, it's his sled!
Oh, that's her son!
Oh, he's on the earth!
Oh, he's in the bank!
Oh, she's going to die!
Oh, they're just pretending!
Oh Oh Oh!
Shut. The. Fuck. Up.
And you're not brilliant for "figuring stuff out" THE SECOND TIME AROUND.
That's called REMEMBERING.
...
This was apparently more so I could vent than for you all's entertainment, Sorry - and thanks. I feel a little better =)
