Stupidest thing you have ever heard anyone say?

    All,

    Was reading some of the threads posted recently and thought the above would be a good subject to discuss.

    What is the stupidest thing you have ever heard.

    Personally, for me, it was when I was in school, during a perticularly unruley business studies class. Dead serious, one of the 'lads' down the back of the class was trying to annoy another bloke across the room.

    So he goes ''Here Maurice, I bet I can throw this 50 cent across the room, into your mouth, down your neck and into your stomach and you wouldnt even know it! Thats how good a money thrower I am!''.

    Maurice just shook his head, and died a little inside.

    I sat behind Brendan O'Connor on a bus once for 3 hours. He was talking loudly on the phone the whole time.

    3 hours worth of material right there.
    :(

    Was living in England for a few months...

    A nameless friend from Ireland rang me up and asked me what time was it over there.

    Needless to say, i just laughed, and led him to believe it was an hour later.

    Dunno if he's realised yet.

    Has to be the post by someone here a while back before Lisbon II. He wrote something like 'I was walking down the road and I seen a bunch of yes voters abusing an old woman and pushing her because she wanted to vote NO. We should all vote no!'

    What an arse clown.

    "Look it's a bleedin tornado".

    Said from one skanger bird to another outside a pub on the Northside (Dublin).

    What she was actually looking at was smoke from the Sandymount towers.
    The actual tower were obscured from view by a double-decker bus that had pulled in.

    I was reading through some old texts yesterday. I go on to telling a mate (girl) about a holiday to America earlier this year.
    I mentioned I'd saw a moose and were amazed by how big they were.


    "Mooses? Are they real?!"
    "Erm.. yeah?"
    "Like real animals? In the zoo?"
    "Erm I doubt they'd be in a zoo here"
    "What do they look like?"
    "I dunno.. massive reindeer type things, hard to describe"
    "Wow. I'm gonna go to the zoo just to see them"
    /facepalm

    I'll think of a few good ones in a bit, I know plenty of idiots

    "I've known him since 6th or 7th class."


    My friend and I in London...
    Her: "Can we go and see Trafalger Square?"
    Me: "Yeah, why?"

    She stands up and says, But sir, dats a map of Ireland, Offaly is in bleedin africa!

    Was giving out to my then 5 year old for picking up the kittens I had just told her not to touch (I caught her when I looked out an upstairs window) and asked her to explain herself..
    " But Mammy, I didn't think you'd see me":rolleyes:

    In skewl, many moons ago, the aul history muinteoir was asking us a few questions about Columbus on his travels.

    So, he asks this fella in the class what cape Columbus came around before passing Africa or some such question, (can't remember precisely) and your man pipes up: "Cape Canaveral?!"

    Even the teacher pissed himself laughing....

    It was funny at the time:o

    One of my friends talking about a person he met on a night out...
    "I've known him since 6th or 7th class."

    There is such a thing as 7th class...my secondary school had an age limit (you had to turn 13 by January of 1st year or something) and my birthday was later than that, ergo i entred 7th class. It's basically 6th class all over again, except it was called 7th so we wouldn't feel we were being held back/too dumb for Loreto :rolleyes:

    Back OT, a friend was describing a trip to Berlin and called brandenburg gate "that big gate thing beside Starbucks" :D

    In America a while back chatting to some hot bird in a bar...

    Her: So where you from?
    Me:Ireland
    Her:Oh yeah, where's that?

    Didn't surprise me, most people I met there are pretty ignorant to the world anyway so I proceed to use my hands to describe where England is (which she knew) and then explained where Ireland was.
    Chat continues...

    Her:So what do you do in college?
    Me:Engineering
    Her:Oh yeah? So do you do like, bio engineering?
    Me: (a bit stumped) eh no, why do you say that?
    Her:Cause you know so much about maps and stuff!

    Confused to say the least, yes I know where my country is on a map and what has that got to do with anything 'bio'?

    I left her alone...
