Textiles GCSE
And another one!

A good friend at school had just taken the written exam for her GCSE in textiles. A group of us had just had our respective exams and were comparing notes on how it had gone and which questions we'd chosen for the last question, a case study or project style question, worth about 30% of the mark.

She said "I did the one about the phone."

The others who had also done the paper looked puzzled...

She added "You know, 'Design a child's mobile'

Did I mention it was a textiles exam. We cried. And this was in the 90's when nobody even had mobile phones!

» Amazing displays of ignorance

City boys...
Whilst at work, one of the guys on my team (age 33, Essex) came across a fact in a pseudo-science news article along the lines of how many thousand earths it would take to fill the sun. He then pipes up "I wonder how many earths it would take to fill the moon."

Thinking he'd just slipped up I said "You mean how many moons it would take to fill the earth?" ...There ensued the most unbelievable debate as to which was bigger, it actually split the team, two of the guys convinced that the moon was bigger.

In the end the other of the two Googled it and declared "It's OK guys I've found the answer, we're actually all right. It says here that there is conflicting opinion and that nobody really knows."

OMG
