Theres this really dopey guy at my school.
-In a maths lesson, learning about 'theta'- 'Isn't theta a kind of cheese?'
-In a RE lesson, learning about family types- 'A nuclear family is a family from Ukraine, right?'
-In a science lesson, learing about carbon- 'Dry ice is ice without the water, right?'
Not sure if it counts though, cause he's a bit of a troll sometimes.

(Sorry, I just found protentious kinda funny. As opposed to anti-tentious.)Terminate421 said:
I believe that those hundreds other games get a sufficient amount of appreciation by generally being bought by more people, being more likely to get coverage in mainstream media and so on.
Seriously though, not buying something because it has a pretentious following is, like, being the king of pretentiousness
I was going to make that snarky comment...Legendsmith said:
Anyway, I haven't noticed anybody ninja my (semi-)serious comment, so here goes:

I know @MortifiedPenguin IRL and she just said this little gem.
-Holds up a drawing of a man I just drew-
"Why does he have two arms?"

But it is dumb! And almost all of them do!Terminate421 said:
Sorry. I couldn't resist.
I guess mine is someone saying that *clearly* the power lines by his office were emitting Scary Radiation of some kind because a tree he transplanted to near the line grew stubby and short, while the other trees of the same type that weren't near the line grew tall. Basically "omg one data point and I have decided that science doesn't work and there can be only one reason why this happened."
Okay Binnysboy. Just for you. Here it is for a third time.Binnsyboy said:

Can I set her on fire? I think it would be a good idea for me to set her on fire.
Just build a few bridges made out of duct tape that connect the UK to Mainland Europe. There! It will never move again. Perfect sense.Broady Brio said:
Me: *trying to explain 'The Cake is a Lie' meme to a non-gamer* ...look, it's a message you find written on a wall in blood.
Her: Written in blood? Is this some kind of emo thing? It sounds stupid.
And then I remembered why I don't associate with people.

Unfortunately I believe setting someone on fire for idiocy is a felony. I think the only thing we can legally do is pray very, very hard to whatever deity is out that there that this girl is never, ever given the chance to breed and that she never, ever gets married so that she has to work for every crust of bread she eats.Binnsyboy said:-_-Screamarie said:Okay Binnysboy.

Seeing how the slavery issue was a major reason why the South succeeded from the North it's not really that much of a dumb thing to say.Xangba said:
I mean sure there are other reasons for the U.S. Civil War but many of them also have slavery as an underlying factor.
Wait, is this from this video [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbT0HV4-GjI&list=UUH-_hzb2ILSCo9ftVSnrCIQ&index=0&feature=plcp]? Based on the other contributions it sure sounds like it.solemnwar said:

"Wasn't the first World War fought during the 18th century?"
Said by a classmate once. ONCE. (we all corrected her and I hope that was the only thing she has gotten wrong during her life)
Every time I hear someone claim that the U.S. wouldn't have gotten involved in the Vietnam War if JFK hadn't been assassinated. Yes, the man responsible for the Bay of Pigs disaster was totally adverse to conflict. And the fact that JFK is quoted as saying "We don't have a prayer of staying in Vietnam. Those people hate us. They are going to throw our asses out of there at any point. But I can't give up that territory to the communists and get the American people to re-elect me," means he was definitely on the verge of pulling out.
Edit: Although he was working on a policy shift that would have withdrawn 1,000 troops when he was shot. Still, 1,000 troops versus how many in Vietnam?

My English class was full of the stereotypical twi-tard, Bieber-worshiping idiots that people associate with today's youth. Here's a few gems:
"One Direction's just like the Beatles, only better!"
"Romeo and Juliet is stupid! Why don't we read Twilight?"
"Why are we even reading this story? Its all sad and depressing!"
I would go on, but I fear that more quotes would infringe on my fellow Escapists' sanity.

To be fair, I agree with the second quote, minus the Twilight sentiment. Romeo and Juliet was vastly overrated. It's an ephebophile who decides he has found the girl of his dreams a couple of weeks after breaking up with his last girl of his dreams, and eventually killing a man to save her, then killing himself over her corpse.
