Ignorance"A girl who used to work for me believed that saveloys are made from fish because 'you get them from the fish shop'." Says Richard Mcbeef. He goes on to say "I was getting on for 40 before I became aware that medical doctors don't all have doctorates."
Tell us about your own embarrassing ignorance or that of others.

When in a pub with an ex-mateAnd the discussion moved on to when the first motorway was built and how the planners probably never considered tailbacks and constant roadworks. Then one of them piped up:
"When they opened the first motorway, do you think they called it the M1, or do you reckon they waited until the M2 was opened and thought 'we better give them numbers'?"
"Eh? The M1 wasn't the first motorway, it was a bypass that became the M6" I told him.
"No, the M1 was the first motorway"
"What, and then the M2?"
"Yeah of course"
"So the M18 was built before the M62 then?" I asked.
"Yeah"
"So it was a fucking dead end then, that was bad planning seeing as it now connects the M1 to the M62".
Jesus wept. Anyway it turned out he'd been nonceing up his 14yo brother in law and he got 4 years, so all's well that ends well.
