So what is it? Surely you have had some fairly silly things said to you or absurd insults hurled at you. I shall give you two examples of the things I mean.

To me:

"Fuck off you fucking faggot, or I will come over there and fuck yo ass until it bleeds." (Hmmm... who's he calling faggot?)

And to my Australian friend while in America (no bashing, this is genuine):

"How can you live with yourself Nazi?"
My friend "I'm sorry?"
"Nazi. Its because of your country that we had World War II!"
My friend "How do you mean?"
"Well, Hitler was Australian!"
(Nice knowledge of geography, dick!)

My friend "I'm sorry?"

lmao :D :D
all my friends are all too damn educated to say anything (that) stupid :(

I'd heard the faggot one before, but damn that nazi one is retarded. Not only was Hitler Austrian but that fact does not make all Austrians nazis, and definitely does not make it the fault of Austrians born after Hitler that Hitler existed. It must take real effort to be that disgustingly stupid.

"Hi, I'm George W. Bush."

The fresh air of the countryside is delicious.

Baldy. I'm not so that one was particularly surreal.

Unfortunately these come from my grandma, who was still a nice lady...but-

He doesn't get long hair from our genes.

Grandma: My adress light is out.
Uncle: The light bulb probably burned out. We'll replace it.
Grandma: I don't think it has a light bulb.
Dad: We'll loo-wait. What do you think it uses?
Grandma: Well if it uses a light bulb then I don't know what.

This is the woman my dad gave a pre-harddrive computer to. To store recipes(sp)....after the fifteenth call I told her to go to the little box her recipes had been in for, like, ever and get what she needed.

Baldy. I'm not so that one was particularly surreal.

Quite.

The fresh air of the countryside is delicious.

That is a very strange quote.

Also though, what most people call the natural countryside actually is not. Most of what one sees is artificially created by farmers, large wheatfields, haystacks, barns etc. In the true countryside, which still exists in some parts, these are not to be seen and there is in fact a great variety of wooded copses, marshes and brown fields each of which have their own ecosystems and beautfiul wildlife. These are the areas of true beauty.

Sorry for preaching a little. I am not campaigning against farming or anything. Just making a point.

I get this at work all the time.



"I need to send an email"

"Do you have an email account?" (I've learned to ask)

"No, why would I need one of those?" :sniper: :headbang: :sniper:



Kind of goes with CTOAN's.

Two geography ones:

"Sorry to break your illusion, but Mt.Washington is on the West coast."

(German tourist speaking to me after i was arguing with my brother about this, patronising git)

and

"Don't be so damn stupid, California is next to Florida!"

(My brother points out his strength does not lie in his geography)


Now for sports:

"Don't they play the Rider Cup in Wales at the millenium stadium?"

(Friend of mine who goes to Oxford...they letting anybody in these days ;) )

and

"Doesn't Bill Gates play for Man Utd?"

(Another moment of genius from my afore mentioned friend)

Baldy. I'm not so that one was particularly surreal.
Are you sure you're not in denial?

Someone who my sister's friend turned down once called her flat-chested.
If you'd ever seen my sister's friend you would recognise that it was patently false.

"Freedom Fries"

To a friend (he works on tech support)

Induhvidual: My internet won't work.
Friend: Well have you tried to connect?
Induhvidual: No, my computer won't start.
Friend: Is the power on?
Induhvidual: No.
Friend: Then you won't be able to connect to the internet.
Induhvidual: But my phone works.

To me

Me (to a girl who took three entire years in Japanese to realise that "masu" was used for verb words): If you were to drop dead, the national IQ average would rise by at least 50%
Induhvidual II: .................................................................................................... ......................................... What?

Dumbest I've heard would have to be "I'm voting for George W. Bush because he's a godly man."

A couple of friends of mine had a political argument one night after we had been drinking. It went something like this:

Friend 1: I just don't understand why you're voting for Bush. His policies are anti-gay and..

Friend 2: WHAT YOU PEOPLE NEED TO UNDERSTAND IS THAT IT'S NOT YOUR TIME!!
(and she screamed loud enough that i got my second noise complaint)

At that point i went and hid in my computer room.

"Kill the radicals!"

chick at a high school academic tournament:
"Who's Michaelangelo?"

At work on the phone with computer help folks.

Me: "my log-in and password seem to be locked. i can't get on the computer"

Help Desk: "you need to send an electronic trouble ticket for us to work on it. It's on the intranet."

Me: "how do I send the trouble ticket if I can't log on"

Help Desk: "I don't know but we need the trouble ticket to help you."

Working in a hotel..in the hotel.Both of us.Next to a phone in the lobby.
Woman-excuse me,I need to phone my friend.
Me-no problem ,what room is she in?
Woman-room 203.
Me-O.K, pick up the phone,dial 9-203.
Woman-wow thats easy,thanks.
woman picks up phone.Dials..(elapsed time is now 7 seconds)
Woman - Susan?!!Yes its Me!.....................Well Sure I will.Where are you?
Jesus Christ,are people honestly this stupid

and on the whole log in note - i work in a student help desk

student: i can't log into the computers
me: did you get a log-on password from one of the staff, i.e me?
student: no, but i still can't log on to the computers
me: thats why you can't log on...
student: but i STILL can't log on to the computers

(and this went on for about ten minutes until i almost needed a pie chart to explain to this poor science student that passwords can be helpful when trying to log onto a system that uses passwords for every user.... huh)
oops thats a bit of a rant - oh well!

I was once in HMV with a couple of my friends and I was talking to one of them about STIs and she mentioned chlamidia so my other friend shouts over from the other side of the cd rack 'WHO'S CHLAMIDIA?!'

Hehe, I worked in a supermarket and heard equally stupid things like:

Customer: I want a refund on this coke I bought right 'ere! (Hands over a bottle of Tesco brand Coke)
Me: Are you sure that you bought this in this store sir?
Customer: Yes. Why, you calling me a liar?
Me: No, it's just this is Sainsbury's.

every time Fox news reports on Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. I could have made a drinking game out of it the day Kerry announced Edwards as his running mate

I was talking to a pacifist and he told me that that "all weapons are boomerangs" and that when we hurt other people we're only hurting ourselves. I asked if moa ze dung hurt himself when he killed those millions, possibly tens of millions of people in china and he said yes, on the inside, where it matters.

a friend and I were walking out of a movie theatre after somehow being conned into seeing Titanic.

Two girls walk out behind us one says "I hope they make a titanic 2."

Stunned at the idocy, my friend turns around and goes "What, the titanic sinks again!?"

Dumbest I've heard would have to be "I'm voting for George W. Bush because he's a godly man."
You just can't stand it, can you? You just HAVE to insert your demented political philosophy into every damned thread on the entire friggin' board, don't you? Well, the dumbest thing *I'VE* ever heard is a poor little crybaby who just can't get over being on the losing side in an election. Why not join the other immature twits and threaten to leave the Country because President Bush was re-elected? That would complete the cycle of stupidity you began with the above post. :D

*joins in and points out a similar fact about Etrusca's post*

Well, that could go on and on :p

Stupidest thing I've ever heard?

"Oh come on, you don't need on the computer, no-one does!"

"So why does your wanting to use it mean more than mine?"

"Because I nee- oh shut up."

What's your deal, Eutrusca? My comment had nothing to do with my political philosophy--it had to do with the ridiculous notions that 1) George W. Bush is a godly man to begin with and 2) that even if he were, it would in no way qualify him to be President of the US. That is why it ranks as the dumbest thing I've ever heard--or are you too dense to understand that?

'That CD player loud enough yet?'





Seriously? No. I think the stupidest thing I've ever heard came from a couple of classmates:

Ana: 'Do butterflies get their periods?'
Me: '...Ana... why are you concerned about the menstral cycle of an insect...?'
Dan: '...what does 'menstral' mean?'

Highschool freshmen. I fear for my generation.

I must admit that hearing people talk about bush being a 'moral' or 'good' man do qualify as some of the most palpably ignorant and stupid things i've ever heard uttered.

Another is When New Zealand won the Hockey Gold Medal at Montreal Olympics.
My dad and another guy where talking about it and along comes a Yank and says America had never lost the Gold-turns out they were talking about ice hockey :p

Or the American who tried to convince my dad New Zealand was next to Austria not Australia
"Nah im sure its next to Austria"
Funny because ive lived here 19 of my 21 years aand aint never been to Europe :p

"Wait.. Japan's an island?!" - Girl going on japanese exchange trip

Me :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
Well its really 4 main islands but yeah

My little sister (before she really knew what she was talking about, but it was still funny):

"When I grow up I want to be a man"

When I had a little job in a computer store:

Customer: "Can you download a copy of the Internet onto floppy disk for me?"

Or another:

"I just downloaded the internet-how do I use it?"

When i did a little overtime on the helpline:

Me: "How can I help?"

Them: "Help! I can't find the any key! I think my PC is faulty. Can I get a new one?"

Me: "No, it just means press any of the keys on the key board."

Them: "Why didn't it just say that in the first place? How can they be so stupid?"

Me: I thought, Look who's talking and then said "I think it's just common sense."

Them: "Ok, well, thanks anyway."

Man, that was the funniest customer... or so I thought.

Later that day I was visited by somone who came in, spurting all teko-babble about his system not working-then I took a look and found the power switch on the back was not on... he was so embaressed he never came back.

I was in Florida (sorry, not picking on Americans I swear) and someone asked where I was from and I said England and he said "Did you drive here?" It was funny although to be fair he may have mis-heard me.

------------------------------

OK guys, just letting you know that I am going to desperately try to be nice from now on but please forgive me if I relapse. I have serious issues and so may not be able to resist. (Mumbles incessantly). :)

Two from the same girl I had to spend 6 days sharing a carriage with on the Trans-Manchurian. Somehow she'd managed to get a degree, get a teaching job in China and not die. Miracles can happen.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing Moscow. I can't wait to see Einstein's grave. Bit strange that, though, considering he worked for the Americans, innit?"

The next was in the middle of a conversation where I was suggesting that it was perhaps not the greatest thing in the world that virtually all Chinese hated the Japanese
"Yeah, but it's reasonable, though. After all, you have to think of the nuclear weapons they used against them."
I left that one alone. I mean what can you possibly say within the bounds of politeness?



Still, she was nothing compared to the Chinese in our cabin. Why, oh why is it that the only incredibly stupid Chinese people with no social graces whatsoever I happen to meet in my first year I end up sharing a tiny space with for 6 days?
Anyway, here's their classic commentary (to each other, mind, this wasn't dumbed down for the foreigner) on seeing Lake Baikal for the first time, word for word:

"tai da la" (translation: it's very big)
"dui, tai da la" (yes, it is very big)
"henduo shui" (there is a lot of water)
"dui, henduo shui" (yes, there is a lot of water)
....
"tai da la"
and so on



Finally I feel I should point out my own stupidity. The following took place a few years ago in the Punch Tavern on Fleet Street:

"Got any ID mate?"
"Are you serious?" (note I was 22 at the time)
"Yeah"
"Erm, OK then, I think that I might have my student ID card somewhere, that may do"
Rustling through wallet
"Nope, wait a sec..."
Rifling through pockets
"Ah, here it is"
"There's no date of birth"
"Yeah, but it's a university ID, you don't go to university under the age of 18 unless you're a genius. Do I look a genius to you?"
Lengthy pause
"Yeah, alright then, what do you want?"
"A pint of coke."

My friend Chris. And he said this after traveling to SE Asia and seeing what kinds of problems are caused by inflation and worthless money.

somebody (whos nationality will remain unknown) asked me "if this is the sixteenth chapel where are the other 15" the only thing was they were talking about the sistene chapel.

And yes English was their first language

One the bus home once, a drunk dude started yelling at us

"SNIFF GLUE, WORSHIP SATAN, SNIFF GLUE, WORSHIP SATAN"

Implying we were goths, just cuz i have long hair :P, hardly anyone was wearing black and we looked like the least gothic type people ever.
He then went on to say that

"All your mums smell really bad, yeaaah, like fish, they reak of fish"


Hahahhaha RETARD

For some reason I only have to put my trenchcoat on and someone thinks I'm a matrix lover. The last person that called me "Neo" Suffered a broken nose. I'm sick of people being so sad as to critisise what I wear.

Friend's Mom: "Oh really?"
Friend: "Yes. I'm gonna set it up on the counter here and look."
Friend's Mom: "Should I wipe the counter with Lysol so the virus won't spread to the toaster?"

Classic.

Aha! So you admit it! You are the Second Coming!!

Aha! So you admit it! You are the Second Coming!!
The first coming was my dad

I would have to say that any time somebody uses the “my ideals are more civilized/evolved” or the “your ideals are more barbaric” arguments. Very insightful :rolleyes:

The stupidest thing would be....

"You and your boyfriend look like cousins."

That was said to be by a really stupid friend of mine.

Mind you, I'm not dating that that any more... but, really...we did kind of look like cousins, mainly because we're both Eastern European (though him more than me since he was).

The first coming was my dad

My first coming was watching a Pamela Anderson movie.

Okay, here's one... probably not the stupidest thing, but it was pretty funny. My friend was writing something criticizing the UN and the concept of human rights... basically he's against natural law. He's what one would consider arogant, with a very superior attitude. Anyway:
"Hey, Microsoft word is showing "inaliable" (as in "human rights") as a spelling error. Maybe because it's a bullshit word some paperpushers made up."
Me: Umm.... the word's "INALIEANABLE".
"Oh..."
He changed the spelling, but maintains the superior attitude.

God likes Jack Daniels!
Not any more. They dropped it down to 80 proof.

After me and my sister have just watched The Patriot (Mel Gibson in the Revolutionary War - my sister was 20 at the time - note that we have both lived in the US for our entire lives and have both graduated from high school)...

Her: Hmm, what was that about? What was the war they were fighting?
Me: That's the Revolutionary War.
Her: Huh?
Me: Revolutionary War. When we fought against England to become a free country.
Her: We fought a war against England?
Me: Uhhh... :headbang:

One time a local radio station decided to devote itself to exclusively play ABBA songs. “All ABBA, all the time,” is what they made their station slogan. That was one of my favorite radio stations until they pulled that stunt.

Once when discussing religion is school with a teacher a classmate pipes up “So if you’re a catholic, what religion are you since you’re not a Christian.” This girl got an A in religious studies.

Also my mate watching the football “ If that went in it would have been a goal”

Another less intelligent class mate “I’m not a punk and I’m not a emo! I’m a GOTH and I don’t like being labelled.”

I was in a steakhouse with my grandparents somewhere in Missouri...

Me: Excuse me, but are the soda refills complimentary?
Waitress: Oh no, they're free.

Good thing we have minimum wage so that people like this can make some money.


And then there was the time in Social Studies class in the 8th grade-

Stupid Student (to Teacher): What does ignorant mean?

This one is from a movie, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider to be exact.

Oh come on how could anyone be empressed by the idea of just the sistene chapel of course youd need at least four to be impressed 16 would be grand. :rolleyes:

This one is from my mother about my little brother, who had a wound on his right elbow and kept scratching it open:

"I just don't know how he does it" - while trying to scratch her right elbow with her right hand.

You're of course free to think what you will, but don't go around demeaning our democratic freedoms. They certainly do exist, nevermind whatever bogus source is telling you they don't.

"Nah im sure its next to Austria"

Then you need to try Old Potrero. It's about sixty-two bucks a bottle, but it's 124.5 proof. Straight rye whiskey, and damn is it good.
