Ever been shocked at what some people don't know?

No, I think it’d get the exact same response from the guy. :smiley:

Commonly grown in English churchyards, hence the saying about death and taxus.

My employee walked in this morning with a bad cold. She stated around lunch time that she was feeling better but every two hours when her time release medication “goes off”, she gets tingly and lightheaded and has to sit down. Apparently she thought they really were on some sort of timer and didn’t just dissolve slowly giving her medication throughout the day but gave her a burst of drugs every other hour.

Put a loud alarm clock under her desk, one of those old Westclox ones. Don’t set the alarm; just let her hear it tick . . . tick . . . tick. Set it on an inverted pie pan for extra tickage.

Yesterday was Johann Sebastian Bach’s birthday.

I’m rather shocked that I forgot. :frowning:

This video of a woman who doesn’t grasp what “miles per hour” means seems to belong in this thread.

Did you think it was a coincidence that it has the word RED right in its name? Obviously a Russkie plot.

I just ran into a 41 year old man who didn’t know how women urinated. He was completely unaware that women had a separate urethra. This is a divorced man with a daughter.

You didn’t even send him a card?

No, and now he won’t even answer my calls. :frowning:

He mustn’t be disturbed. The master is decomposing.

I was once privy to a female who didn’t realize American was involved in a, “conflict”, with the Middle East in 2007/2008.

One of our geography teachers has, I believe, a degree in environmental science. This obviously doesn’t include much real science since he has put up posters asking people to count the species of wildlife around the school pond, including frogs, newts and other “reptiles”; and prepared a little presentation for the school TV system that advocated energy saving and talked about how many “watts per hour” you could save by turning something off. :smack:

But then, I was in a history lesson once where the teacher gave the dates of the US civil war as 1863 - 1865… and another teacher who seemed to think that the King of England in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies was George the Fifth.

:smack: :smack: :smack:

There are plenty of WOMEN who don’t know that. To be fair, it’s hard to get a good look at the area.

Don’t they teach anatomy anymore? I know high-school was a long time ago, but that’s when I learned it.

Led by that infamous commie John Wayne.

May I ask how this came up in casual conversation?

WAG:

“Huh!? This crossword puzzle wants a 7 letter word for ‘The place from which a woman urinates.’ But it only has 6 letters!!”

“Hoohah?”
