Despite me giving them an ad hoc lecture on the effects of insulin and their various types on the human body. As in, no food for an hour, and she'll be your newest coma patient.

Hi, friend. You have to re-word the quote, your comment or both with correct grammar and punctuation where appropriate because what you wrote is completely garbled. Sorry.
The no ice one reminded me of my 50 year old sister saw me putting bottles of water in the freezer, she told me l couldn't freeze water. Wow l explained the whole ice making process!
I'd want her to explain what she meant. Obviously you're posting here so I doubt it but I'd wonder if she was talking about inside a bottle. Yes it freezes but I'd think she's worried about it expanding, popping the cap, and potentially leaking, or even cracking the bottle.
In a screwy way she was sort of right. As the ice melted, the volume would be reduced slightly since ice takes up more space than water. Even so, the change in volume would be so small it would probably be hard to measure
I know that this probably won’t make it onto a video or anything, but I definitely have several good ones. Firstly, I can’t tell you how many people seem to assume that if you’re blind you’re also deaf. I know that because I’m blind and have had several people assume that I know and use sign language. I’ve also had several people assume that I can’t comment on the Internet because I can’t see so obviously I can’t right. Fun fact. Technology is so advanced now that I’m able to type and either my phone or my laptop will say everything I’m typing out loud. There was one time when my friend and I were shopping at a grocery store. I don’t have any vision, and she’s partially blind. She happened to have her newborn baby with her. Well at one point, this woman came up to us and said something to the effect of, “You are so lucky to have that precious baby with you. He just grabbed your finger and his grip kept you from falling! You have a seeing eye baby! “I wouldn’t have believed this except that I happen to be standing there at the time. It was obvious sadly that the woman who said it was dead serious. Unrelated to the blindness thing, but one time I was at a restaurant and heard some lady tell either a waiter or waitress not to put any ice in the water because she didn’t anyone extra calories because of the ice. It was so ridiculous that my friends and I just started laughing hysterically.

We all laughed, thinking he was joking. He was not. Edit: Look, I'm not going to claim know everything about his home life, but I can confirm that he was very sheltered. There are a few other stories, and this is only the one that came to mind.
@@mr.protagonist5639 To be fair, it wasn't so much that he was stupid as it was that his parents didn't really explain certain things to him. Luckily, we were able to change that, for better or worse.
About 5 years ago, I saw my friend and his sister walking down the street outside my house, and we got chatting. It was a very hot day, so I invited them in for a cold drink. When I got the ice cube tray out to ice the drinks, my friend's sister said "How do you cut the ice into such smooth cubes to fit in the tray?". Thinking she was joking, I laughed. But she was dead serious. So I said, in disbelief that I was actually having to explain this to a grown adult, "You pour liquid water into the tray and then freeze it". She looked at me like I was speaking an alien language. 10 minutes of agonised explanation later, the truth finally comes out. This woman, in her mid 20s, has absolutely no idea that ice is, in fact, frozen water!
In ninth grade health class a guy said to the teacher, “Why do abortions even exist? If women don’t want to get pregnant, all they have to do is pee out the sperm!” 🤦🏻♂️
That doesn’t get him off the hook. We had ALREADY gone over both male and female genitalia, in particular the reproductive organs. He was either wasting class time by asking inane questions or he completely missed the fact that while some spermatozoa may get into the urethra, peeing would NOT flush out the majority of seminal fluid out of the vagina, which is BELOW the urethra. In the end, it was STILL a stupid thing to say.
I'm an amateur astronomer. When I was growing up, I was looking at Mars through my telescope with my mom, and I commented about wondering what the stars would look like from Mars. She commented, "You mean, Mars has stars too?"
Pulled a guy over for running a bright light tbar on the highway. During the stop, he said he needed it because his high beams weren't bright enough. I told him to get new bulbs. Then dude straight up said it was probably because one of the lights were low on fluid. I started laughing, thinking he was joking. Dude was serious. He then pointed out the condensation on the inside of one of his headlights. I td him what it was, and that he needed new headlights. That, or a restoration kit. Freaking killed me.

13:16 I was forced to eat a Belgian waffle and a steak with only a spork awhile back and can confirm (for a different reason) that they are the devil's utensil
The reason I was forced was bc I had to get a to-go box from my university's dining complex (they're for if we don't have time to eat in the DC and have to eat during a class) but didn't realize they only were putting flimsy plastic sporks-- not even a plastic knife or anything-- in the boxes until some time after I had gotten my food and right before I started eating in class. My poor prof thought I was laughing at him but no, I was just sleep deprived and laughing at my attempt to eat a steak with a frickin spork. I mean technically it was a Salisbury steak which is somewhat softer than a normal steak but still. It tasted decent tho so it wasn't too bad (I also think too many ppl complained about the sporks bc they did end up changing back to the normal 3pc plasticware sets)
I had to explain to a grown woman and her husband that in fact not all chickens lay eggs. It’s only the hens that lay eggs and roosters do not. They seemed sheepishly unsure & glad of the explanation.

My brother and I lost my car in the parking lot at Disney World. We'd been on our feet for 14 hours and were so wrecked we could barely walk. A kind security guard stayed 40 minutes past the end of his shift to get us a ride to my car. (For some reason, the trams had stopped running.) The two employees only had room for me in the golf cart, so when they dropped me off at the car, I said, "Would you mind driving back and picking up my brother so that he doesn't have to walk here?" They waited around until I realized how stupid my request was. I got out an apologized to them for being so daft. 😂
A kid in my year 10 biology class asked if cows were predators I say that forgetting the teacher of that class the previous year said she knew someone that had a bathtub that could cure cancer but couldnt use it because they were being threatened by the government of the isle of wight So thatd probably be the dumbest thing to come out of that school

I have blown on ice cream multiple times in order to “cool it off”. It usually happens when im tired and not thinking, I feel pain in my mouth because of how cold the ice cream is, but it’s the same pain when something is hot, and me being tired my brain thinks, “I gotta cool this off it’s too hot”
The potato and cow ones seriously concern me. It's amazing how many people don't know basic agriculture or where their food comes from. I mean... there's still people out there who think that all chicken eggs carry a chick fetus and that eating the eggs unalives it.

In my high school days, I was chatting on the phone with my then GF (mid 1990’s) and I guess her brother walked in and had pizza and wings. He Asked if she wanted some buffalo wings and she straight up asked “are they actual wings from buffalos?” This was way before the whole Jessica Simpson incident. I laughed at her and she hung up on me.
Was told, seriously, I don't know oppression. I'm native American. Trail Of Tears. Same person dared me to use a racist slur at rapper fifty cent. Uh,how about no.
Well, your people's history doesn't mean you personally know what oppression is for other groups today in any context. Uighurs, Palestinians, or Blacks in America.
@foreverseethe doesn't matter, they don't know oppression either. Everyone knows racism, and almost all races experience racism in this day and age, but rarely anyone truly becomes oppressed, since oppression isn't being attacked by one person, it's being limited by everyone. Being put in an unfair living environment.

Renault cars were sold in conjunction with Chrysler back in the 1980s. I can assure everybody that it had seatbelts. Sadly there was a defect that caused the engines to constantly overheat. Loved that little car and its great gas mileage but the hot engine issue finally made me sell it. They came through six months to a year after that with a recall noticed my husband passed on to the guy who bought it. The model was called Alliance because it was made in cooperation with Chrysler. Wonderful car except for that. Could not get it fixed no matter what we tried.
Not said directly towards me, but overheard A girl in my friends science class was arguing with the teacher about how using brail is offensive and how deaf people aren’t disabled. Like she fully believed this. And was getting so mad she was crying and everyone was just sitting there silently. Lmfaooo
Good thing she had never met me, I would’ve had a bone to pick with her. I learned braille at the age of 10, and I’m fairly fluent, I don’t understand how that can be offensive? Lots of hearing can also lead to loss of communication capability, and you don’t think that involves some form of disability? I’m assuming you’re not the one saying this, but person you overheard would’ve gotten that for me,

So this dude behind me asks: What are those? Me: Those what? The cows? Him: Cows? No, those huge beasts eating grass. Me: Dude, those are cows. Him: Nope. Cows are waaay smaller, like dogs. Me: There can be smaller cows, but those are regular Iberian cows. If you go up north you'll see Northwestern cows, which are a third bigger than these one. Him: Don't pull my leg! Cows are small, haven't you seen them in the pictures of milk bricks? *and then all the surrounding privates to be (who where obviously listening) turned or ducked to look at him like he was a crazy person. He abandoned a week after that and everybody was relieved xDD.
12:05 I initially went into an Education major when I first went to college as part of a double-major. Dropped it after the first semester because while I love working with kids, I can't stand when they can't listen to directions and do their own thing... which, them being kids, they do all the time.
In my history class in my sophomore year of high school, we watched the movie The Patriot. The one with Mel Gibson.

The Trump business man statement reminded me of something. A man (read as stalker of womenat a local Wal-Mart) came up to me and said that I had to vote for Trump. Why? "Because he's such a good talker." He couldn't say what the talking points were or a cohesive idea on why he was better than Hillary or even Trumps platform (the wall). This was just before the Access Hollywood bus stuff came out. My response is the same as any where my job is customer service, "I really don't like discussing politics; however I tend to vote for people based on what they're platform is and if I agree on it. I'll listen to him and think about it. That wasn't good enough for him and he started arguing with me about it. I repeated myself, smiled and wish him a good night.
I had a buddy who was really smart about electronics but a bit short on brain cells for everything else. When he was car shopping he pulled more than a few absolute oblivious to reality moments. I will mention the two worst ones. #1. One of the first car lots he went to had a really nice turbocharged Chrysler and it was right in his price range. After he figured out how a turbo worked (had to show him you have to go faster than 30 mph to really feel the turbo) he decided he wanted the car. When we got back to the dealership the salesman started drawing up paperwork while my buddy circled the car in happiness. That is until he discovered what appeared to be a bullet hole. He pointed it out to the salesman and said he no longer wanted the car. Why? Because it might have been involved in a gang land shooting and he didn't want a random gang member murdering him when they saw the car. We were in small town nowhere Oregon where only the cattle and sheep run in gangs. #2 was when he actually bought a car. He drove to Portland and went to one of those rip off big city lots that do their own financing. The first thing he says is he needs a car today and can't go home without one. They probably grinned widely before they raked him over the coals. He ended up paying $12,000 on about a $8,000 car. Monthly payments were $425 and after adding in the interest rate he actually paid closer $15,000.

This is actually something that a friend told me about, but some of her friends were convinced that tacos and burritos were the same thing, and did not believe her. To be fair, it is a relatively small distinction, and the people who thought this were from the Mid West. Still they did not believe the Texan who grew up knowing the distinction. (Tacos are folded over their filling with the ends open while burritos are wrapped in such a way that both ends are closed.) Sorry for the rant it’s just the story about meatless chili con carne just reminded me of that.

He was either wasting class time by asking inane questions or he completely missed the fact that while some spermatozoa may get into the urethra, peeing would NOT flush out the majority of seminal fluid out of the vagina, which is BELOW the urethra. In the end, it was STILL a stupid thing to say.

I'm an amateur astronomer. When I was growing up, I was looking at Mars through my telescope with my mom, and I commented about wondering what the stars would look like from Mars.
She commented, "You mean, Mars has stars too?"

Pulled a guy over for running a bright light tbar on the highway. During the stop, he said he needed it because his high beams weren't bright enough. I told him to get new bulbs. Then dude straight up said it was probably because one of the lights were low on fluid. I started laughing, thinking he was joking. Dude was serious. He then pointed out the condensation on the inside of one of his headlights. I td him what it was, and that he needed new headlights. That, or a restoration kit. Freaking killed me.

13:16 I was forced to eat a Belgian waffle and a steak with only a spork awhile back and can confirm (for a different reason) that they are the devil's utensil
The reason I was forced was bc I had to get a to-go box from my university's dining complex (they're for if we don't have time to eat in the DC and have to eat during a class) but didn't realize they only were putting flimsy plastic sporks-- not even a plastic knife or anything-- in the boxes until some time after I had gotten my food and right before I started eating in class. My poor prof thought I was laughing at him but no, I was just sleep deprived and laughing at my attempt to eat a steak with a frickin spork. I mean technically it was a Salisbury steak which is somewhat softer than a normal steak but still. It tasted decent tho so it wasn't too bad (I also think too many ppl complained about the sporks bc they did end up changing back to the normal 3pc plasticware sets)
I had to explain to a grown woman and her husband that in fact not all chickens lay eggs. It’s only the hens that lay eggs and roosters do not. They seemed sheepishly unsure & glad of the explanation.

My brother and I lost my car in the parking lot at Disney World. We'd been on our feet for 14 hours and were so wrecked we could barely walk. A kind security guard stayed 40 minutes past the end of his shift to get us a ride to my car. (For some reason, the trams had stopped running.) The two employees only had room for me in the golf cart, so when they dropped me off at the car, I said, "Would you mind driving back and picking up my brother so that he doesn't have to walk here?" They waited around until I realized how stupid my request was. I got out an apologized to them for being so daft. 😂

The potato and cow ones seriously concern me. It's amazing how many people don't know basic agriculture or where their food comes from. I mean... there's still people out there who think that all chicken eggs carry a chick fetus and that eating the eggs unalives it. As someone who is born and raised in a small town with a large farming community, it seriously concerns me how a lot of people in city areas have no idea how it works or where their food comes from
When I was five I thought that you could plant an egg into the ground and it would grow into a chicken lol
In my high school days, I was chatting on the phone with my then GF (mid 1990’s) and I guess her brother walked in and had pizza and wings.

I laughed at her and she hung up on me.

Well, your people's history doesn't mean you personally know what oppression is for other groups today in any context. Uighurs, Palestinians, or Blacks in America.
@foreverseethe doesn't matter, they don't know oppression either. Everyone knows racism, and almost all races experience racism in this day and age, but rarely anyone truly becomes oppressed, since oppression isn't being attacked by one person, it's being limited by everyone. Being put in an unfair living environment.

For the one about the ice cubes I understand where the person is coming from. The water that the ice is made from is often different and dirtier to the filtered water served to customers. The person just wants to have all of the filtered water.

Renault cars were sold in conjunction with Chrysler back in the 1980s. I can assure everybody that it had seatbelts. Sadly there was a defect that caused the engines to constantly overheat. Loved that little car and its great gas mileage but the hot engine issue finally made me sell it. They came through six months to a year after that with a recall noticed my husband passed on to the guy who bought it. The model was called Alliance because it was made in cooperation with Chrysler. Wonderful car except for that. Could not get it fixed no matter what we tried.

Good thing she had never met me, I would’ve had a bone to pick with her. I learned braille at the age of 10, and I’m fairly fluent, I don’t understand how that can be offensive? Lots of hearing can also lead to loss of communication capability, and you don’t think that involves some form of disability? I’m assuming you’re not the one saying this, but person you overheard would’ve gotten that for me,

The one about cows!
I was doing army training with a lot of youngsters from all over the country, in the middle of a territory that lets cows to roam freely eating grass instead of having them inside eating milled-dead-cow-bones-and-corn-stuff.
So this dude behind me asks: What are those?
Me: Those what? The cows?
Him: Cows? No, those huge beasts eating grass.
Me: Dude, those are cows.
Him: Nope. Cows are waaay smaller, like dogs.
Me: There can be smaller cows, but those are regular Iberian cows. If you go up north you'll see Northwestern cows, which are a third bigger than these one.
Him: Don't pull my leg! Cows are small, haven't you seen them in the pictures of milk bricks?

The Trump business man statement reminded me of something. A man (read as stalker of womenat a local Wal-Mart) came up to me and said that I had to vote for Trump. Why? "Because he's such a good talker." He couldn't say what the talking points were or a cohesive idea on why he was better than Hillary or even Trumps platform (the wall). This was just before the Access Hollywood bus stuff came out.
My response is the same as any where my job is customer service, "I really don't like discussing politics; however I tend to vote for people based on what they're platform is and if I agree on it. I'll listen to him and think about it. That wasn't good enough for him and he started arguing with me about it. I repeated myself, smiled and wish him a good night.
I had a buddy who was really smart about electronics but a bit short on brain cells for everything else. When he was car shopping he pulled more than a few absolute oblivious to reality moments. I will mention the two worst ones.
#1. One of the first car lots he went to had a really nice turbocharged Chrysler and it was right in his price range. After he figured out how a turbo worked (had to show him you have to go faster than 30 mph to really feel the turbo) he decided he wanted the car.
When we got back to the dealership the salesman started drawing up paperwork while my buddy circled the car in happiness. That is until he discovered what appeared to be a bullet hole. He pointed it out to the salesman and said he no longer wanted the car.
Why? Because it might have been involved in a gang land shooting and he didn't want a random gang member murdering him when they saw the car. We were in small town nowhere Oregon where only the cattle and sheep run in gangs.
#2 was when he actually bought a car. He drove to Portland and went to one of those rip off big city lots that do their own financing. The first thing he says is he needs a car today and can't go home without one. They probably grinned widely before they raked him over the coals. He ended up paying $12,000 on about a $8,000 car. Monthly payments were $425 and after adding in the interest rate he actually paid closer $15,000.
I'm going to out myself for bei g dumb... but I didn't know there was two holes for women "pee hole/sex hole" for an embarrassingly long time either 😳🤡

Are you a guy or a girl, though? Guys I 120% understand, our education system is horrible, and it's an obviously awkward subject. Girls I gotta question a little more, do you never see the little hole, or do you completely miss the larger hole? Are you afraid to wipe yourself because it will turn you into a lesbian? Ordinarily, this wouldn't cross my mind, but there are guys out there who won't wipe their own ass for this very reason. -Yes, they are afraid of becoming lesbians. /s-

This is actually something that a friend told me about, but some of her friends were convinced that tacos and burritos were the same thing, and did not believe her. To be fair, it is a relatively small distinction, and the people who thought this were from the Mid West. Still they did not believe the Texan who grew up knowing the distinction. (Tacos are folded over their filling with the ends open while burritos are wrapped in such a way that both ends are closed.)
