Things that make you go...

Has anyone ever heard something so stupid that it made you do this

Friend of mine, by the name of John Doe is leaving the country for a year or more and so went to cancel his car insurance. He heads into the local branch to tell them and expects a nice fat cheque for €200, refunding the remainder of his policy (about 6 months).

He comes out gutted, like completely crushed, they wouldn't give him a refund. I thought this a bit odd until I found out he was paying monthly, he went into the office expecting a refund for money he hasn't paid.

Pretty much anytime I hear of someone paying to go see a psychic/fortune teller - I always think 'what a fecking idiot'

The King of Moo

A very smug guy I worked with, loved to act the know-it-all, and occasionally came out with moments of utter stupidity.

Such as:

"I'm not racist now, but the Poles are the most racist bunch of f**kers I've ever come across!"

One time, "Stuck in the Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel was on the radio. He walked into the room with a smug grin on his face and sagely opined:
"Ah, the Beatles! There hasn't been a better band since!"

Lee Evans.

El Weirdo

Hmmm.

I know a guy who doesnt 'trust' maps. Gods honest truth he somehow belives all maps are 'wrong'.....same guy over the years has told me

• Sea is Bottomless
• Space has a 'roof'
• always has these outrageous stories that are no way true like the time he was killing time in town & met Colin Farrell, went for a beer with him and 2 days later woke up in Scotland after a massive binge!!

Thickest, most ignorant blatant liar ive ever met!!

The King of Moo

I'm sure others here saw it as well, but the time the woman on the Irish "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" answered the question "Complete this line from Shakespeare: 'Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me...'" with the answer "a few bob" left me completely speechless.

Friend of mine and myself were talking about someone needing to get a triple bypass, after a while it became clear that we had different ideas about what a triple bypass was so I asked to explain it to me- He told me it was when you are slit open from your neck to your ankle and all your veins are removed. How we laughed, in fairness we all tell him stuff to see if he will believe it and tell peoplebut that one takes the cake.

Watch him get owned here. Take a bow son

The people onthe police flikr site being sought for offences to do with the rioting. The ones that go thieving with a large 87 on their back, or really cool logo or stripes that makes them stand out in the crowd. Or the woman in the sleeveless top with tatoos on her arm...in fact any of the women, wearing no kind of cover-up to disguise them. Er, lads, there is more cctv in the UK than anywhere else on earth!

But best of all, the guy who posted his own very clear picture on his facebook page!

A friend of mine, intelligent girl with a degree thought I was making up the fact that a rubber tree exists, can't use a tin opener and believed until recently that 'chink' was an acceptable term for someone from Asia.
