Story 6: Gravity is not constant across the surface of the earth. But it is very nearly so. We thought it was for long enough that we almost defined the meter off of it using pendulums. Then we accurately measured gravity in multiple places using these pendulums and found the slight variations. And that idea was chucked out the window.
"This person is stupider than me and is in charge of me." If you become an technical expert in your field, you will work under management that is not qualified to do their own job, let alone criticize yours. Make sure you take that into account when you negotiate compensation.
its an annoying double standard the seem to have. we got a redicules faiths in the religons of 'science" and "evoultion" and thats bad but they got faith for their actual religon and that A-O-kay. honestly it just shows the dont know what evolution is , have no faith in their god, and just want to be seen win the argument
Story one. Had a similar encounter, I rebuffed back with "Why Are you Questioning God's power? Are you really that Prideful that you would question a Divine Being on what he can or can not do?" the person had the biggest Surprised Pikachu face before walking away. Mind you I am an Atheist.
I work at a restaurant with old customers and yeah it gets stupid fast, the kicker is the old people I work with that do things wrong because "that's just how they do it" the cognitive dissonance of not understanding after 40 years that the 16 year old she didn't train never got the memo and creates a reoccurring proble.
these stories make me think of Flat-Earthers. they keep saying "the water in a glass looks flat therefore the entire world is flat" and other utterly idiotic things they think are "gotcha logic"... i usually respond, "have YOU see the EDGE of earth YOURSELF?" that shuts up half of them, the rest just *copy-paste the exact same nonsense again* ! they have NOTHING to say but "denial of reality". AND when called out for their TOTAL lack of ANY evidence, they ALWAYS say, "do your own research!"
Every election I feel like I'm surrounded by idiots. A quarter of the people voting for the Republican, a quarter voting for the Democrat, and half not voting at all.
Story 23: People do weird stuff when their life is on line. They generally don't do the smart thing unless it has been constantly drilled into them. This is one of those examples. OP kept their wits about them. Everyone else melted down. This isn't a smart vs. idiot problem. This is a training problem.
Story 6: I know that there were way mother things for OP to have this complaint, but gravity actually changes on Earth. Is just by a fraction of a percent, so not enough to be a noticible for humans or animals, but its enough the be a problem for high precision science experiments. Some times scientist have need to use instruments to get the local gravitation constant before doing the actual experiment.
The girl with the birth control pill dilemma, well, I could not have kind of meth in my head, that sounds like an extremely circular conversation, and I absolutely despise circular conversations. I completely understand your frustration.
If you tell someone funny misinformation as a joke, you should, after having your laugh, instantly clear it up. its not the best, especially for your girlfriend, and make her look like an idiot by telling it to others.

28:22 How do you get to college with such a non basic math undrerstanding? I can't tell if it was the school system that failed to teach them. Since they entered college I have to assume it's a private one.
This isn’t the nicest of comments but when I run out of patience (granted I don’t have a lot of that) I say that I absolutely refuse to allow them to DUMB me down and walk away. It takes them a minute to figure that one out and I’m away from the terminal stupids.
My top I'm surrounded by idiots moment came at work when my CO workers were more interested in hearing their supervisor brag about his vasectomy in a work related meeting vs discussing work subjects..

Growing up “look it up” was not a debating point because the internet was not so easily accessed. Now we have a nigh infinite well of information in our hands yet people are so stubborn and ignorant. Back then it was understandable but now it’s a poor choice people make
Im not fighting your argument for you....if you want to make points in an argument or your stance you can't just say look it up...that means you have no idea what you're talking about...youre going off talking points that you can't back up....youre just echoing bs you heard which was probably false or an opinion piece
LOL, I had a manager tell me that EXCUSES are like buttholes, everyone has one. Unfortunately for her, we're both nurses so I could reply, "Yeah, and the reason we all have buttholes is because they serve an extremely important and valid function - just like some excuses!"

When I grew up in Bakersfield, my most favorite thing to do in the whole world was to go to the chapter plays. My favorite was Rocketman. This was a “no brakes” chapter. The bad guy had him trapped in the car, brakes and steering sabotaged, door welded shut, and as the car went towards the end of the cliff with Rocketman trapped in there, and went over the cliff, I was so excited. I was the first in line the next Saturday, and they always play the conclusion of the previous chapter, before starting the new one. Well, it turned out that in the new chapter, Rocketman somehow bailed out of the car before it went over the cliff. All the other kids cheered. But not me. I stood up and shouted “Are you kidding me!? They just cheated us! Do you all have amnesia!? HE DIDN’T GET OUT OF THE COCK-A-DOODIE CAR!” I got kicked out and banned from there after that.
I mean... almost every movie serial cheats like that? Every single one ever made. They're actually famous for how bad they cheat... though I guess there's always a first time for everyone where you find out.
You think it would be easier for people to put their stuff away if you told them to "please put away or secure any loose items or devices before landing"? Because electronics is hardly the only objects that can bounce around in a rough landing even if it probably is the most common item people have in their hands. Also i think the most common reason people get confused about it is because they probably heard electronics like phones can interfere with the plane because of the signals they emit, so something like a camera or CD player would make less sense to put away as they doesn't emit any signals.
My last guild in World of Warcraft before I quit the game. They were more interested in goofing around than playing it successfully (like I was). After the guild broke up (a dispute over loyalty vs talent in raids), I had enough. The time sink, the guild drama and the trolling turned me away from MMORPGs forever.
The birth control one sounds like everyone is confused. The girl seemed to be thinking that she needed to take pills everyday, and the nurse seemed to be thinking she only needed to take 24 pills in a month then the next 6 or 7 would be off days for her period. Nurse is still an idiot for not figuring out what the girl was saying and either correcting her and saying she only needs to take them for 24 days, then have 6 or 7 days off, or realize she was wrong and give the extra months.
Why I feel like the prescription story had to do more with insurance then the doctor not knowing math? Like OP was right on the math but knowing more certain pharmacies are and insurance being a pain, I understand why only 12 refills.
Story 18: it's a thing that happens. He marries you, takes you to his home country "to visit family". Turns out you're also a citizen through marriage, and you have no rights now you're there. Your home country can't do anything to the citizen of another country without an expensive diplomatic incident.
9:49 that is in fact false statement and you can easily proof that. i mean all bathroom scales increase the force of gravity at least 2x when people step on it. 🤣
Charlotte2688, remember just how much of the country preferred KH's kind of thinking even after hearing one or more of her speeches? Surrounded? -- oh, yes indeed. Conservatives have long held the brain power and wisdom. They read analytical books.
1 I got in trouble for saying rude customers and for just checking time on my phone yes there is such a thing as just checking the time on your phone no that doesn’t mean that I’m being lazy since this happened today I can’t say where this took place I hate customers 2 November 2024 that’s all I’m going to say
Honestly, the guy with the coupon story is the idiot in that story. A coupon to ducks the price. A dollar coupon saves you a dollar. The ice cream is 4.99 and it makes the ice cream free. You would type in 4.99 because that’s how much it’s going to take off. That’s just common sense. I honestly don’t know anybody that had to be told that lol.
And you're idiot in your own story here. How do you know that the program is supposed to duck the price by the given amount or ask for the amount to be left? They are both valid ways of working. There are many different programs written by many different companies for different tills. Both can happen.
Well, if you are going to presemt such easy targets, you don't have to threaten folks with a good time. I absolutely will enjoy the next few years. If you can't have progress, you might as well enjoy the dumpster fire. Pass the popcorn.
