Ignorance
I once was in a programming class where the task was "build a calculator". A student did one with buttons 1, 2, 3 all the way up to about 25 and then ran out of space on the screen. We've asked this before but liked it so much we're asking again: What's the best example of ignorance you've encountered?

No, ignorance means
lacking in awareness.
If you'd just said 'You do realise that's now considered offensive, don't you?", you might have got on better.
You just said exactly the same thing yourself. You realised the Yorkshire people weren't meaning to be offensive.
[edit - OK, that was a completely different poster said that. Left for honesty . . .]
What's the difference between her and them?
Pfft.

I said this a couple of times, she kept chuckling and saying "but she IS coloured"
