The things you are listing are "fun facts" not "obvious things".

I had a female PE teacher who tried to teach us that shortstops are considered outfielders.

I hope not! Also, a ton of people on here say "heroine" in drug threads. I know that isn't as bad but its still retarded and means they don't read.

It prob means spell check doesn't do drugs.

I over heard a conversation in which a woman, grown woman, suggested the Sun was the center of the entire universe.

While we're on geography:

The distance from Chicago, IL to Texarkana, TX is shorter than the distance between Texarkana, TX and El Paso, TX.

I worked with a woman who had no idea that lightning created thunder. She thought they were two completely unrelated events.
She asked me one time, "Have you ever noticed that when there's thunder, a lot of times there is lightning too?"

I remember we had to take a sports test in one PE class in middle school and she said I answered her question wrong in response to "True or False: a center on the basketball court shoots 3 pointers"

I once had a professor in college tell us that the melting of Arctic ice caps would result in raising the mean sea level.

Spell check or auto-complete, whatever, might turn heroin into heroine.

The westernmost point in TX is closer to the Pacific than it is to Louisiana. Also, I live in Colorado Springs and El Paso, TX is further west than we are.

Well, I thought the attempt at humor with this post was for the wrong ocean . . . And then I saw "North Virginia" listed as a state, so now I have to question the humor.

He's mainly right if you ain't trolling

Greenland + Antarctic ice melting = higher mean sea levels

The ice floating on the arctic ocean/north pole, not so much
