some kid in my 8th grade science class thought galaxies were a theory

I mentioned this before, but I went to a Christian school and we watched Kent Hovind videos in biology class.
 
That there was a Mew under the truck

I mentioned it in the personal lolcows thread, but the weeaboo who sort of stalked me would say all kinds of dumb shit. We actually had a list of all of it, although I've lost it in the nearly ten years since we wrote it. One notable gem was her insistence that ice cream is not a food because it is a dairy product.

Also, in eighth grade, there was a girl who thought that the show "Numb3rs" was pronounced "numb-three-ers."
 
Some kids bragged about finding a "fag cabin" in the woods that was supposedly full of porno mags.
 
My ex-hippie English teacher once said that guns were the equivalent to the Devil.

I also meant a kid who truly believed that the world was flat.
 
I think that I, the maker of this thread, needs to share his experience

In my 6th grade science class, a girl basically asked if rocks were alive. In 6th grade.
 
I knew a stoner girl once who thought that the smoke from weed would actually repair the hole in the ozone layer. She also didn't know the difference between the words "fallacy" and "phallus". God bless her.
 
This isn't so much a "spoken" stupid thing, but it still falls into the realm of things that are audible. I attended a university that had a great computer science program, but the campus itself also attracted a bunch of high school airheads (bros and cheerleaders who peaked in high school). I would spend my lunch periods in the university cafeteria reading comic books or doing my homework and without fail most days of the week there'd be some idiot with an acoustic guitar trying to play a Sublime song. The fucked up thing is that it wasn't always the same guy, there were multiple people who thought they could play Sublime and they'd just sit there macking on freshman girls while playing the guitar horribly.

I have no issue with public music, but at least know how to tune your fucking guitar.

A few years ago, when I was a college junior, I overheard a girl on a campus bus complain that her dad had cut her monthly allowance from $1000 to $800. She then proceeded to say, and this is a direct quote "I mean, yeah, I'm going to spend it all on clothes anyway, but, I mean, come on, you know?"
 
A former classmate of mine back in art school got into an argument with the painting teacher that color always exists even in total absence of light.

That same student was a rather sheltered Mormon who also tried to tell another student to tone down their poetry because "it offends me."
 
Not in school but in boot camp one guy asked the Drill Instructor if you had to salute police officers. The DI was so dumbstruck he could not speak.

Canada Goose parkas. Those will be my downfall.
