Gleaned from BBC R4 comedy....
So.. I'm on a plane and this woman says, i dont know how this thing doesnt just fall to the ground, and I slowly realised she really doesn't actually know anything about different air speeds applying upward pressure etc, so I wonder... does she think they just try random shapes and see what flies? PREPARE THE CUBE-PLANE FOR ITS TEST FLIGHT... or does she think it's God... He lifteth up the Planes and Carry'th them Forth, and when they need to land does the pilot just believe... a little less?

Do you believe in anything and have absolutely no idea how it works?

One for the laydees here...

Also, I don't really understand electricity and how we get it
But that's probably because I know nothing about physics,and have never tried to find out.

I think what this world needs is more people admitting when they dont understand something
And not being shamed for it

And more hookers with guns.

You'd be fucked
if you didn't use things you didn't know how they worked.

I'm pretty sure you don't know how each of your organs work, for example.

Im completely clueless about network technologies
but I try to understand as much as possible about anything, because the only stupidity is enforced, deliberate ignorance. There's simply no excuse for that.

I think people on here know network technologies.
I know a bit, is there anything you'd like to know.
