Its not really stupidity i guess, but i always got irritated in history when people pronounce Hiroshima (Hee-Row-Shee-Ma) wrong (as He-Rosh-ima). I mean, if youre gonna bomb the fuck out of an entire city you could at least remember the name while you're melting the children into little skeleton-puddles.

Also irritating - people who dont even know that Nagasaki was also bombed.

The military junta of the time was really incredible. A faction even tried to stage a coup against the Emperor when he called for surrender after the bombs were dropped. A COUP against the fucking EMPEROR.

In high school I had the coolest motherfucking physics teacher ever! He is actually writing a book of all the stupid things students have said in his class. He calls it his "black book". He never misses a chance to pull out this notebook and read all the stupid shit people say.

One day class was really boring and slow when we were learning about inertia and momentum and shit. So to "liven up" the class, he pulls out this book and reads a few lines of stupid things people have said about objects retaining their state of motion, etc, etc. After reading all this shit, he goes around and asks random people to define stuff.

He gets to this one kid and asks him "What is momentum?".... the kids reply:

>when an object smashes something and gets a happy feeling

This one made me lol so hard. For those of you who don't know, x-ray crystallography is a method to see atoms 3-dimensionally.

Also, it was Rosalind Franklin who did the x-ray diffractions, it was Watson and Crick who stole it via Maurice Williams and got everything for it.

Fun fact 1: Whenever they proposed a new model, she always found a flaw with it with knowledge they both knew of.

Fun fact 2: I have a poster in my College dorm that has a picture of Rosalind Franklin and states "She was the first you stupid Crick (and Watson)" I'm not a femanon but still feels she deserved the credit.

The most interesting thing about King Charles the First
is that he was 5 foot 6 inches tall at the start of his reign,
but only 4 foot 8 inches tall at the end of it.
Because of...

(sung)
Oliver Cromwell
Lord Protector of England (Puritan)
Born in 1599, Died in 1658 (September)

Was at first (only)
MP for Huntington (but then)
He led the Ironside Calvary at Marston Moor in 1644 and won
Then he founded the new model army
And, praise be, beat the Cavaliers at Naisby
And the King fled up North, like a bat! Toward the Scots...

Well its not that I don't have ambition. I've been moderately successful running my own business the last couple years. I just fucking hated school when I was a kid and taught myself most of everything I know. But I'm paying for it by being 24 years old and starting school again with a bunch of pregnant 19 year olds and 35 year old former cosmetologists with 6 kids, most of whom will probably give up in a few months. I'll have this over with soon and be going to a real university.

Yea, she literally thought up until that point that even atheists believed in hell. I wish I were kidding. I had to contain myself.

This story is not fake or exaggerated. It's been a year or two, but this is pretty much what she said, almost word for word.

I had a differential equations teacher who was showing us an example of a physics problem and couldn't figure out what the sign on gravity was. We told him it was negative (down) but I think he thought that gravity was always opposite for some reason. Like down -> gravity is positive, and up -> gravity is negative. I don't know, he's a math teacher so it doesn't really matter.

45% of Americans believe in New-Earth Creationism.

45%.

Almost half.

Almost half of Americans believe Terra is less than 10000 years old.

Mind you this was in 2001, so it might be down to 40%, but still.

I had a roommate a year ago who believed that shit and he was only the 4th or 5th person I've ever met in my life who told me he literally believed the earth was only 6000 years old and believed in noahs ark and all that bullshit.

Technically, there could be a scientific alternative to evolution, that wouldn't be based on creationism. It's unlikely, and evolution is based on evidence, but to say there's only evolution and creationism is oversimplifying it. The great thing about science is anything can be disproved with counterevidence, so to say evolution is 100% true is bad science. No physicist would say general relativity is 100% true.

The thing is, in an environment where their opinions clearly aren't the majority, they probably have the good sense to not open their mouths and look like a moron. They also probably console their beliefs by rationalizing that the universe was created in such a way that it appears internally consistent to scientific observation because proof denies faith.

Yes, theories can be disproved. But evolution itself, the idea that organisms change and differentiate over time, it a fact. If anything is going to contest "evolution" it'll be contesting the processes by which evolution operates, not evolution itself. There's already debates like this going on, like the debate over how important natural selection or punctuated equilibrium are to evolution or to specific examples of evolution.

agreed but that doesn't mean you can extrapolate everyone who doesn't voice their opinion as such to fall into that category. Based on the number of people who I've seen open their mouths and actually say shit like god 'created it with age' to test us or something like my roommate and the number of people who have expressed they interpret genesis metaphorically I would give a loose estimate in my area that about 25% of people where I live believe the universe is less than 10000 years old. I know in some places it will be much less and if nationwide its 45% there has to be places where just about everyone believes it.

Anti-greentext time

-Tutor for an introductory computer science class in USA, simulating genetics and evolution over time
-Students are a little rusty on the biology, but they can understand the concepts. No blindingly stupid questions
-Nobody has said anything about God yet

There is hope.

You have just convinced me to actually put work into schoolwork, if community college is all that awaits me if I do not. Honestly, my dad managed to teach Economics in a nearby community college, and he doesn't know shit about economics. Thank you.

my bio teacher was a strong bio teacher and she said she believes god used evolution as a method but being english she is not a retarded ameritard and wasn't being dickish about it so I respected her believes and we all benefited from mutual respect and I got a great Bio education.

She actually is quite smart, but sometimes we all do stupid things (THEN POST IT ON 4chan)

My community college isn't that bad. Just have to surround yourself with smart people. WAY less expensive and the transfer not too bad. i could spend 4k, not including housing, a quarter for a school like UCSD OR spend 800$max (around 600 depending on books) a semester with housing already given to me with parents. 24k vs 3k for classes. It did take 1 year longer but i wasn't rushing myself

I've got a great story when I was in Germany for a few weeks.

So the family I'm staying with has a laptop, and the girl says that I apparently did something to break it. (I was the last one to use it, and this was after we had gotten into an argument about laptops using too much power when in "sleep mode".) I try to point out that the fucking blue screen says DISK CHECK for a fucking reason. And when I ask her if this has happened before, she tells me it happened about a year ago. Well lo and behold, the default setting for a Windows Disk Check is EVERY TWELVE MONTHS. During this entire time she flips out on me, says I know nothing, and that because I am American (and thus spoiled), I have no idea how the laptop works.

Oh, yes, I raged hard at that bitch. Got along quite well with her parents, and I got to talk to her father quite a bit about Basketball and Baseball. Couldn't stand the class I had with her, but sometimes that can't be helped.
