What's the dumbest thing you've ever heard or overheard someone say?

Or just anything stupid you see people doing that annoys you. Being in high school, I hear people say really ignorant/stupid things all the time. (And no, I don't have a superiority complex, I don't think I'm a genius, or a perfect person but some people just say/do things that are just REALLY dumb.) For example:

Girl in my math class: "Aren't polar bears, like.... extinct or something?" *proceeds to giggle when she was corrected like this is supposed to be endearing*
Boys in the hallway: "I really wanna beat the s**t out of this one kid." "Why? Do you know him?" "No, but he looks gay."

Girl in my French class who is infamous for spouting ignorant crap all the time: "Germans are all awful. I don't see how anyone can visit Germany after the Holocaust..." Having strong German roots, I took so much offense to this. I really wish I was making this up.

This one didn't happen at school, but at the Zoo:
Fully grown man: *points at tiger* "Look kids, a Lion!!"

And the thing that bothers me most out of anything: "pepol who tlk li3k dis". And if anyone questions it, they argue that it's not English class. I wasn't aware English class was the only place one was required to show literacy and form coherent sentences...

Sorry for the little rant. People just get on my nerves sometimes. hehe

My own dumbass father: "When Stalin established the communist party in Russia...." He refused to accept that Lenin led the Bolsheviks when they came into power until I looked it up for him.

Fucking Christ.

"But this only has three carbons"
A student looking at a picture of a hydrocarbon diagram of methane.
Which had four carbons.
That same student also came out with the brilliant observation "The clock is going backwards"
It wasn't

Someone in Spanish class asked if a beach had to be connected to the ocean. I find it quite sad that she lacks common knowledge yet spends much of her time on facebook. But you can't live life without being happy right?

After various friends and I had been making a variety of Jewish jokes of varying quality and being criticized for poor taste by a friend, she proceeded to make a black joke. After the hypocrisy was pointed out:

Friend: Unlike the Jews, black people never had to endure decades of persecution and murder. *looks to me the History student to back her up, wonders why I'm angry*

Many years ago, during high school I was talking to my friend about WW2
I cant remember exactly what we said, but Hitler was mentioned... A girl walked up who over heard us, and asked
"Whats a Hitler?"

SERIOUSLY!

Pretty much anything that comes out of Glenn Beck's mouth. Examples:

''When I see a 9/11 victim family on television, or whatever, I'm just like, 'Oh shut up' I'm so sick of them because they're always complaining.''

''African-American is a bogus, PC, made-up term. I mean, that's not a race. Your ancestry is from Africa and now you live in America.''

''The only [Katrina victims] we're seeing on television are the scumbags.''

''I haven't seen Jesus and what he would do on a talk show on Fox, but I'm going to try.''

Drama Class, we're reading a play called Popcorn where two people break into a house so they can hold anyone living there, hostage.
Girl: So, are they like Assassins?

Same Girl: Who's Barrack Obama?

My brother in law thinks Canadians are from 'Canadia' and Mayonnaise is a brand name.

A girl once said to my friend 'It's not that I'm wrong! It's just that my logic is different than yours!' She was deadly serious too.

Oh and my sister told my nephew that ladybirds eat... triffids. That would be so much more awesome admittedly.



Quick deploy the Ladybirds!

A girl in my Science Class

'The flavour of milk that a cow produces is based on the cow's colour...'

She is 16...in an ADVANCED. SCIENCE. CLASS. I couldn't help but chuckle

Doesn't methane have one carbon and four hydrogens?

It's entirely possible knowing my sister. :D It's possible she's keeping them in a Mayonnaise factory in Canadia. ;)
