What VERY SIMPLE common facts that OTHERS GET WRONG annoy you?

?



I was talking to some friends of mine, one of whom is a very gifted student on FSU here and an intern. She's a math wiz, makes straight "A"s, and picked up her company job her with ease.



but..... she think's the Planet Mar's temperature is "HOT" becuase it's red. wacky


WTF???? I mean, WHAT THE LIVING F ?????


But what amazes me is how many people get very basic simple facts that EVERYONE should know, wrong--and most of these people are normal poeple..not insane...not slow...not hopeless....wacky

people think every musical artist i like is gay.

not gay as in, "oh that's so GAY." (though there's that, too)

but gay as in literally being the homogay.

What's the "very simple common fact" that she got wrong....That Mars is not "Hot"? I'm not sure that Mars' temperature is a simple, common fact...lol

That's so ignorant. Just because all gay men like Barbra Streisand doesn't mean they dont' also enjoy a little Dropkick Murphys every once in a while. shrug

This one completely baffles me: That that dinosaurs died out at least 65 million years before humanoids ever walked the earth. There are still people who think cave men were being terrorized by the T-Rex. sigh

that people cannot tell the difference between scientific fact and religious mythology.

Or that people cannot realize that scientific fact and religious beliefs can co-exist...

the only thing i hate about peole getting simple common facts wrong
is that i sometimes feel the need to tell them they're wrong and it
will spark discussion and they will simply keep telling you that it
is right the way they say it.

or the instances where you've sat and been silent for over a dozen
times while someone keeps saying the same stupid thing again and
again and again. and you just know that by this time there is no
way you can correct them because you went along with this idiocy
