I don’t remember. I can’t let things like that live rent free in my head, and people are always upping their game.

Most, if not all things our president says and the rubes that believe it after all this time.

Einstein never proved anything and what he said were just stories he made up

My father told me I shouldn’t use regular table salt because “they” were mixing powdered glass in so that it would work its way through your system and embed itself in your heart muscles.

He had called me after I got high though, so I gave him the best kid glove treatment I’ve ever managed.

Told him that was very interesting. Explained that he could easily prove and expose the conspiracy by pouring salt into a bucket of distilled water. The salt would dissolve, but the glass would sink to the bottom. He could then filter the glass out, then boil the water off to recover the salt safely. He hasn’t brought it up since.

My dad is a sweet guy and good at handyman stuff, but dear lord, almost nothing higher level. I truly think it’s the lead exposure.

When the first Covid vaccine came out a coworker told me she wouldn’t get it. Supposedly the vaccine had “killed 90% of the population in Bulgaria already”. I told her I thought we’d have heard about it if that was the case, but she was convinced that the media was covering it up.

She later claimed she was deathly allergic to the vaccine, so I ask which part of it. From what I know you can react to a vaccine if you are allergic to eggs or chicken. That’s a pretty common food item and it would be good to know if your coworker has such an allergy. I also asked where she keeps her epipen so I could help her in an emergency. She claimed she always left her epipen at home and that she was allergic against a lot of medication. She never mentioned any allergies again afterwards and they seemed to have mysteriously disappeared after the pandemic was over.

I just remembered that a former coworker of mine was sure that the real 2020 election results were 80% for Trump.

I remember someone else saying that it’s ridiculous how someone can be so smart and believe something so stupid. Because that’s the issue: The person who made that claim is objectively a smart person, but he fell into a conspiracy hole of some sort. He was let go from his job because he could work on our clients’ ships because he refused to take the “depopulation shot” (covid vaccine)

Low hanging fruit, but “The next president of the United States is Donald J. Trump”. And I heard that shit twice. The second time was definitely the dumber of the two, but the drop off from 2nd to 3rd dumbest thing is about as wide as the known universe. It’s cartoonish in its absurdity.

But the dumbest thing I’ve heard personally from an individual is that unbaptised babies who die go straight to hell. I was told this by a woman who liked to preach Jesus’ eternal unconditional love in my town centre. I’m atheist, but by default. Like, I didn’t read my way into it or anything, I just completely lack any impulse to believe despite being made to go to Catholic mass every week for 17 years. All that’s to say that I don’t have particular animosity towards believers, but that kind of believer can suck a dirty dog dick.

Apart from it being insanely unfair to babies - roasting away like a rotisserie chicken without even the consciousness to know what’s going on - it’s also beyond evil to tell that to believers who’ve lost children soon after birth due to disease before they even leave the hospital, or have miscarried through no fault of their own, etc. Strangely, I never hear that argument from the anti-abortion religious fanatics. That is, “don’t abort the baby, or it’ll be sent straight into Satan’s Big Green Egg!”

Imagine being Satan, and having a daily influx of humans too young and unformed to even walk when prodded by a demon’s pitchfork. Even a supremely evil entity like he’s alleged to be would have to wonder just what the fuck is going on with heavenly bureaucracy for this to be the way things are done.

“Going faster with the car doesnt use more fuel”.

Not the very dumbest because i heard lots of dumb stuff to really list it all but this is defenetly up there just like: “Water does take longer to boil with salt”. While true, it is so minimal that its not even a second for a regular pot

believing in FLOURIDE-FREE toothpaste, different brands /off brand ones do the same thing. they dont provide any benefit at all. its a placebo effect if you look at the reviews, and then the ingredients people said they have cleaner whiter teeth, no sht, its because these other toothpastes are highly abrasive thats why they get a clean feeling from it,ends up being more damaging because of its abrasiveness., plus people are confusing ingesting flouride in childhood with flouride use in adulthood. and then comes the complain that thier teeth health dint get any better or they still getting cavaties.

I worked with this dude who i thought was pretty chill. Then one day we’re talking about the future of the world and he tells me that he thinks global warming is a punishment from god coz we legalised gay people getting married in Australia. I thought he was joking and took me a few minutes to realise this guy was dead serious

Any of trumps speeches.

That or the things his followers say to justify why they follow him.

A coworker of mine thinks that climate change isn’t real and that believing that humans have the capability is pure hubris. And a few months after he told me that, he claimed that windmills were making tornados worse.

An old boyfriends Dad never used indicators when he drove, because " they should know where I’m going"

I met a boy once who thought that a blowjob meant he’d take off all his clothes and then I’d blow on his skin … I mean, it’s subtle and probably pleasant, but most guys prefer the regular kind

This is second hand from a friend, but he said he overheard a conversation between 2 coworkers:

Person A: looks like you got some sun this weekend

Person B (badly sunburned): Yeah, I just bought a convertible and did a lot of driving with the top down. I figured that the wind would stop me from getting sunburned, but I guess it wasn’t cold enough

Person A: That’s… not how that works
