What is the stupidest thing you have heard someone say?

**Troy711** · 13-09-2006, 07:27 PM

a concrete truck driver was telling us at work a week ago that he had to drop off a truck load of cement off to a bloke who was a public servant. the conversation went as follows:

driver: where do you want it mate?

pube: um, just over there *points to grass*

driver: on the grass?

pube: yea, i dont need it today, just pour it over there and i will use it tomorrow

driver: see ya later mate

haha, the idiot was too tight to pay the extra 20 bucks to get it delivered on saturday so he figured he would get it dropped off on the friday and use it the next day

Two of them would be from a few years ago when a bloke told me gold is magnetic. Yeah right!

He was deadset serious & proceeded to explain how this is so. His explanation was that when you pan off a load of concentrate, you leave the gold that's left, in the pan. Put another load of concentrate in the pan & pan that off. He said, what happens is the gold that you left in the pan attracts the gold in the 2nd lot, which means it's magnetic.

He seemed to think he's a professional gold prospector just because he'd been doing it for 20 years.

Even though at the time, I had only been prospecting for half this number of years, it soon became obvious I had more than 3 times the amount of knowledge on the subject than he did.

Another time I almost got into an argument with him when he pointed to the north & said that's where the sun comes up in the morning.

Oh mate... I've heard some good ones, and even gotten into punch ups with idiots because of their lies.

One of my "mates" (he's a bit or a ricer clown) said his Holden Nova come stock with LSD and 130kw at the wheels...

Some bloke also tried to tell me he had an uncle in the bush who had everything on gas, even a gas powered microwave oven.

That car would be worth a little more than $18,000
only because of the engine cover and the built number plate

Was doing a job (im a painter) for a customer (was middle eastern) who wanted to save some money, so he said he would do the prep work himself. I explained that he should give the walls a light rub back or if he wanted to do it quicker wash it all down with a sugar soap solution. When I asked if he had some he said he did. So I rock up and get all my stuff out and go inside to check the job out. THE WALLS WERE AS STICKY AS ###!!! When I asked why he said he didnt know and did what I said. I asked what he used and he had mixed a cup of soap flakes and a cup of sugar in a bucket of water...........................

actually, we reno'd our house when I was about 8, and I though sugar soap had sugar in it, couldn't work out why it cost so much... ok that's the embarrassment out of the way.
Funny stuff people say to me... um... bah I'll get back to it later

Should rename this thread to "instances where we think we're better than others because we're experts in our fields and they are just average people"

Oh god, how embarrassing...how silly of me to not know what sugar soap is.

Today at work, someone drew a footing plan for a shed, and he drew the footing diameters in a solid line (not even on the 'footing' layer) I mean, what an idiot, what kind of person doesn't know that footing diameters should be shown with a dashed line!!!?

lmfao, i love that, it's good.

Stupidest thing ive been told was that a guy crashed because of his rims (yes, rims, not tyres or anything).
A week earlier he changed his rims to another brand, same size etc, just different style.

Apparently these rims make the car slide sideways into a pole more

**glassjowned** · 13-09-2006, 11:05 PM

Yeah I know someone who said they were getting new rims and I asked what they were like, and turns out they were talking about tyres. I didn't think they were stupid though!

**bradcad** · 14-09-2006, 10:18 AM

i like one of the state police commissioners about a year or so ago.

'we trialled not chasing (police chases for traffic offences) for 1 week and we actually had people coming up and ramming our police cars'

i call bullshit and that's got to be the most stupid justification for police action I have ever heard.

**Patrio7** · 14-09-2006, 11:49 AM

asked a customer to pull the power out of his modem ( adsl ) and in the background i hear his loud pc die, the customer picked his phone up and said "uhh my screen just went black"...... now anytime i ask a customer to reboot their modem i make sure they know i mean their modem and not the tower.
