What are some idiotic thoughts that shocked you when they were said to you by others?

I had a guy tell me one time that redfish were beautiful fish but they were ugly when they got older and turned into red snapper. He legitimately believed that redfish turn into red snapper when they mature. I was in disbelief when he said this.

I just shook my head and walked off. I didn’t even bother correcting him.

There’s so many things wrong with this. First of all, redfish morphing into red snapper is an absolutely ridiculous concept. Second of all, red snapper are a beautiful fish in their own right. They’re not ugly.

Mars was on closest approach. Friend of mine asked me if that meant it was gonna be as big as the moon in the night sky.

In Iraq we were offered a chance to visit "Abraham's Tomb" on Easter Sunday. Fully half my unit thought it was Abraham Lincoln's tomb.

Catholicism came long before any other Christian faith. It’s the church directly founded by Christ 2,000 years ago, and it has survived to this day.

I would rather take my chances with something founded directly by Christ that has legitimate power and authority from Him rather than join some random church founded by Pastor Joe Blow based on his personal interpretation of the Bible (which was written and compiled by the Catholic Church, ironically).

I once had a co-worker tell me that he was predicting LSU and Alabama would meet up in the SEC Championship game that year.

I asked her what she would pick them up if she believed that. The whole office was like wtf

Years ago when I was at BRCC taking a public speaking class, we were watching a video on Pres Bush talking about OB/GYN’s. And Bush said something along the lines of “Too many OB/GYN’s are unable to practice their love with other women”.

After playing that clip, a woman loudly proclaimed that he only said that, because black women were mostly OB/GYN’s. Like what?! That wasn’t even why we were watching the clip you dumb bitch. She then got completely roasted by the class and never said anything for the rest of the semester.

Sorry not everyone is an estuary marine biologist like yourself. I guess it is moronic to casually believe that a redfish, that is born in brackish marshes and eventually migrated out to open sea as they mature and grow is the same thing as that same red fish known as the red snapper. Completely looney.


To answer the question, the little sister of an ex girlfriend thought the Sun and the moon were the same thing. The worst part, my ex didn’t know enough to correct her.

You mean the Christian belief that started with Jesus himself telling Peter to start it? The one that has lead science and technology for hundreds of years? To be sure to get it out of the way, yes, there were and still are in some cases, terrible things that men have done to innocent children, but those aren’t part of catholicism.

My grandmother (RIP) believed that hummingbirds rode on the backs of geese to migrate. They were too small to fly on their own. It was the gospel to me until I realized geese came down in the winter and hummingbirds had already left

I was at a wings restaurant with a guy one time and he asked me what they do with the little breasts? I guess the puzzled look on my face prompted him to explain. He said "you have the little wings and the little drumsticks, but what do they do with the little breasts?" Unless the guy was fricking with me, he had no clue that what we were eating (the flats and the drumettes) were actually two different segments of the wing (minus the little tip).

I had a senior in high school ask if the guy that lit the fuse on the Hiroshima nuclear bomb had enough time to get away from the blast.
