The Dumbest Thing You've Ever Said

Chameleon wrote: There's this girl in my Spanish class who apprently gets straight A's. I don't know how, with gems like:   "What's a verb?" "What's a pizzeria?" "What's a sit-com?"   She also thought that the president of Venezuela was Osama bin Laden, and that people in Brazil spoke Brazilian. Upon hearing that this was incorrect, she decided that Brazilian people speak Mexican.   This is in Grade 10.

I know so many people like that!

Claire mentioned one who thought that, because Newfoundland are in an earlier time zone, that they found out who wins the Stanley Cup first. But there are trillions more of examples I just can't think of.

But here's one:

In history/geo class, we were flipping through pages of our textbook and came to a page with the Sydney Opera House, and one of the three girls at my table gasps real loud and shouts "OMG It's that thingy from Fnding Nemo!" And they're all like "OMG no way! Why did they put a picture of that here?"

And I was like, "The Opera House isn't from Finding Nemo. That's like saying the Empire State Building is from King Kong!" And they're like, "What's the Empire State Building?"

lawlzorx I kid you not!

But those are still some pretty damn stupid things to say. As for what's the dumbest thing I've ever said, I can't think of anything. My mind tends to forget embarassing things.

Oh my..

I don't feel like watching these hard body women, with the shape I'm in." To which I uttered the now infamous line:"Honey, those chicks would be fat too, if they were pregnant!" We are still married.   And your...er...you-know-what...is it still attached?

Attached (ie nailed) to the front door, I'd imagine

During a particularly boring French class, this girl whispers to a friend "Why do we even bother learning French? It's not like any of us are actually going to China."   I swear to God I'm not making this up.

You will go to hell for this.
I'm still hitin' the edges...

This has to take the cake for 2007:

"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don’t have maps, and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq everywhere like, such as and I believe that they should, our education over here in the US should help the US, er, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children."

Somewhat strange, considering that the participants were not Americans.
