Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

Putting the world to rightsVictoria line train from Brixton one morning. Two shellsuits and lager are having a discussion about the state of the nation. Sat next to them is a City bloke straight from central casting - Financial Times, pinstripe suit etc. He's reading the paper but is clearly also fascinated by the debate that's taking place. The discussion goes as follows:
Shellsuit 1: "You know what this Europe thing is all about, don't you? It's the fucking Germans wanting to control everything."
Shellsuit 2: "Yeh."
Shellsuit 1: "I'll give you an example. Where is the capital of the European Parliament? It's in Brussels...Germany."
Shellsuit 2. "Here, hang on. Brussels is in Belgium."
Shellsuit 1. "Is it? I did not know that [long pause]. Anyway, Blair can stick it up his fucking arse."
Man in pinstripe suit looks on in amazement, shakes his head and goes back to reading his paper.
