Stupidest things people have said

In Australia, let's say you're 20 and you're going to a nightclub and they ask for an id, you give them a drivers license and they look at it and they notice that it has expired, they won't let you in.

WTF? just cos it has expired doesn't mean your age has expired alone with it! X_@

Oh, a while back I told my friend I couldn't stand to watch football because its way too boreing. He said it wasn't becuase I thought it was boreing, he said it was because I was afraid to watch football.... What?

Eventually up i'll learn to talk good. like what i do. Friend said it to someone at school. He told me it was off something. Just don't know what hehe.

"Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream." -George W.Bush.

A couple of weeks ago, I gave this guy his change back and in it was a Canadian Nickel. He pushes it back to me and says something to the effect of "I refuse to accept this. If I'm gonna get change, I only take money from the country I was born into."

I kind of just rolled my eyes, and realized I can't re-open a drawer without the manager's key. I told him that and he exclaimed "FORGET IT! I'm just gonna toss it in the street, show what it's worth to me". He left the store, and chucked it aggressively.

Now I don't have anything against patriotism, but to be that opposed to having a Canadian Nickel is absurd.

I opened this thread expecting to find a few cheap laughs and I find it full of some of the least subtle political and idealogical attacks I have ever seen.

And on stupid things I've heard:
I had a conversation with a girl (we were both ~17) who didn't know who Stalin was, didn't know what Communism was and didn't know who Napoleon was.

"You like Obama, you alien communist!"
Someone said that.
Seriously, wtf.

The stuipedest thing someone has said was when a guy in my grade was trying to insult my friend with ya mum insults and said "ya mum's a girl." We were just like ouch!

My mom has really long hair, until recently it was down around her ankle but cut it to her waste and donated it. But when it was long people would always say to her "Did you know you have really long hair?" I am not kiding.

This really annoying kid I used to go to school with gave me this really pitying look and said:
"Vietnam's not a country, it's a war!"

He was being serious. He also went on to win Paris Hilton's British BFF, which says everything about both of them.

Nox saying "Real men throw mountains". Pure ****in' retarded.

A coworker, upon hearing the sheer brilliance of David Bowie and Queen's opening to Under Pressure, thought it was Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby. I almost wept.

Well...

I know, but how...why in the world would that magnificent bassline immediately invoke memories of Vanilla Ice, of all people? WHY

It just depends on which song you're most familiar with. There's a recent song out, that I don't know the name of, that makes me think of "I'm blue, dabude dabudi" when I hear the first few notes.

As for LightHawkes quote, I'd be temted to ask someone like that if she realises most people don't wear their hair that long.

Another thing that bothers me:

I have a pair of Misfits shoes like these [link] and once, when I was wearing them, some girl thought the logo was for Slipknot or some equally dire band. I playfully poked fun at her, but I could already taste the backwash.

Why can't people appreciate music?

Why are you so easily offended?

A lot of people who can't find their own country on a map bother me, but I can't say much of them if they're not in a civilized one with a structured school system.

"Y'all are sketch fa.ggots" A frat dude took the time to roll down his window in his car and scream that at me and my dorm before showing how manly he was be driving away at a green light.

"Being gay is a choice."

Come on now... It's not. It's common sense.

I've also seen people say that classical music is just random notes being played. How can somebody believe that? o_O

2001, my 11th grade English teacher Mr. Redding: "Quick, who are John, Paul, George and Ringo? Carrie!" *points*

Carrie: ummm.... *bewildered look*

Me: *look of outrage, disgust, and saddness*
