Oh, forgot this one. My friend one time asked me what the capital of South America was. Yep. Me my brother and her sister made fun of her for that for a long time.
Which store?Vault101 said:I dont mean this to be a hate thread...people both smart and dumb somtimes say the most hilarious things
my example is from my mum a couple of days ago....we were in the city and I met up with her and dad after visiting the comicbook store, I took one out while we were waiting for my brother and she casually asked
"do you read them?"
I had to pause and then say "no...I throw them in the trash" she then said "well I dont know mabye you just looked at the pictures" she then addmitted it was a pretty dumb thing to say
Most administrations will avoid keeping a child back or putting them up as they conceive the purpose of school as socialisation and education hand in hand, not education first. Children are kept with their year cohort at all costs, occasionally to the detriment of the student's learning.Mazza35 said:I've got two good one,
These were in a Yr 10 Biology/Physc class (One half year was one, the other ect.)
Teacher makes an analogy to a lighthouse
Girl: 'What's a lighthouse?'
Rest of class facepalms
It took 30 minuets to explain to her what the function of a lighthouse is
Another one she said
Teacher explains how the internet made it easy for scientists to share data, because before 1980/70s they had to fax or phone call or mail
Same girl: Wait, they didn't have internet back then? What did they do on their laptops and phones then?
She also didn't believe the TV was a 20th century invention
So many facepalms, I honestly don't know how she passed Primary School -.-
I love empire toys! though I keep forgetting they have comics too...I find their range isn't as big as quality comicsStBishop said:Which store?
I'm quite partial to Empire Toys, but my brother swears by Quality Comics.
What is so dumb about this?revjor said:*sitting on a bus in Honolulu when a tourist gets on and asks the bus driver*
"Do you take AMERICAN dollars?"
Yeah, you're definitely right about Empire's range being smaller. They have interesting stuff though. I've actually never been to Comiczone, I'll go check it out, I use to always go to this one place in Brisbane (ACE Comics and Games) but I haven't found a place I like as much over here.Vault101 said:I love empire toys! though I keep forgetting they have comics too...I find their range isn't as big as quality comicsStBishop said:Which store?

that day I went to both Comiczone (which moved) and Quality comics, I think Quality comics has the best slelction of trade paperbacks and older stuff where Comiczone is better for new issues (generally speaking of coarse)
As a Brit that is horribly cringe worthy. Whoever said that is a moron of the highest calibre.Cheesus Crust said:My nephew was about 4 or 5 I think when I hear him ask a question. It was the first time he had ever seen a black man, he asks "What's that?"
BTW I also read this thing on youtube saying that people from the British Isles aren't European. He said that the only Europeans are people from places like Denmark, France, and so forth. His reason being that they drive on the other side of the road and use the GBP as a currency instead of the EURO and no one living in the British Isles consider themselves to be European, at all.
Oh GOD WHY? Please tell me you told her off.Ryan Minns said:A friends sister heard a Metallica song playing and immediately said "Wow these guys are so bad! They'll never last"
We both just looked at her before breaking out in laughter. It was too funny not to. Though we explained her error while bad mouthing her music choices subtlySubscriptism said:Oh GOD WHY?

Honolulu is the Capital of Hawaii. Hawaii is a State in America. Thus, Hawaii's official currency is the US Dollar, just like the rest of the states. Short Version: Honolulu is in the US.blackrave said:What is so dumb about this?revjor said:*sitting on a bus in Honolulu when a tourist gets on and asks the bus driver*

Damn, knew it! Fair enough. But cut me some slack, it was really really late and I don't use or learn English outside of the internet, since I'm not a native speaker. If you couldn't tell after reading that wall of text, it can't be too horrible.FireDr@gon said:We have a new one straight from the thread - its MICE man, not 'mouses', frickin' genius.Malkav said:we don't have mouses here
So someone asks you something and you answer "This is the most stupid thing I've ever read"?his1nightmare said:One man once asked me: "How long does it take to upload a video on Youtube?"

He: "Why?"
Me: "This is the second most stupid thing I've ever read."
