Foreigners are to blame for everything and kicking them out of your country is key to solving everything.

Being forced to vote for someone that doesn't represent you is democracy.

Im not sure why the blue conservatives are so worried about a one party government. Just work within the republican primary system and earn your incremental change!

What's wrong, you dont trust how republicans run their primaries?

If you tickle a baby's feet before they are one year old they will stutter. Told to me by my son's girlfriend when I was holding my grandson for the first time. It wasn't a fun fact, it was a rule that I was to obey. So for the record, he should be stuttering by now because I couldn't resist, and they couldn't watch me all the time. :)

I don't know about "ever", but someone recently told me bald eagles are the fastest flyers on Earth; even faster than any military jet.

An old professor once taught the class that the prostate was a myth.

People only started getting cancer since we started eating grain. Because of bread, so many people have cancer now.

A lot of things from a particular family member

This month: His buddy who's a "mechanic" touched our car and did a bunch of "extra work" on it for a "great price". Got it back and it sounded like they emptied the transmission fluid in the CVT. I got "it must be the drive shaft" and "don't go down rabbit holes on the internet"

It was missing transmission fluid

5G causes Corona virus is a favourite. Most of the biblical claims but those are too obvious. Excluding religion and conspiracy theories, expensive speaker cables produce sound quality that is superior to cheap cables. Turning a phone off in an aircraft improves safety. My daughter's teacher confidently informed me that bicycles are more dangerous than cars. That was probably the most depressing and stupid.

"Yes, I'm sure I typed my password correctly."

Working in IT, I can't tell you how many times I've heard that and how many times it's been wrong.

I was experiencing auditory hallucinations when trying to sleep, tried to tell my mom about it. She told me the house was haunted and I was hearing the ghosts.

My father built that house when I was a baby.

My cousin told me that wind power turbines are actually amusement park attractions: The blades are hollow and you can take a ride inside while they rotate.
Later, I calculated that you'd experience 15g at the tip of a typical one.

Anarchy capitalism is the solution to every nations problems.

That there was some guy who heard a voice and then financed and built a 150 meter boat by himself, got a breeding pair of every single land species on Earth onto said boat, and kept them from starving, killing each other, or otherwise becoming unable to reproduce until after the entire surface area of the planet was no longer covered in water.

Idk if it’s nonsense but when Ozzy died a coworkers told me that Ozzy was an American war hero who fought in the first gulf war and help liberate the people of Iraq, and then showed me a very bad AI photo of Ozzy sitting in a tank and flying a fighter jet.

My stepdad once made coleslaw that smelled like burnt rubber. Me and my siblings told him that we would not eat the coleslaw, it would taste like burnt rubber. And he tried to convince us that since we had never eaten burnt rubber before in the past, that we couldn't possibly know what burnt rubber tastes like, and therefore we should eat the coleslaw.

It turned into an hours-long argument about how you don't have to actually eat burnt rubber in order to know what burnt rubber smells like, and that there's no good reason for coleslaw to smell like burnt rubber.

In the end, me and my siblings won, and we did not eat the coleslaw, but I don't understand how you can cook coleslaw... no, wait, you don't even cook coleslaw!

I don't know how you can prepare coleslaw so poorly as to have it smell like burnt rubber, and I don't know how you can be so married to your burnt rubber coleslaw that you would attempt to force children to eat it, regardless of the fact that it smells like burnt fucking rubber.

"Lions are the boys and tigers are the girls."

"People used to live to be 900 years old."

The universe was created and is controlled by a super being and when we die this being allows us to a magical place. I know it sounds utterly ridiculous, but you asked the question.

That technology is progress.

Essentially that (they just assumed was a fact) all other countries worldwide follow the American calendar, years, language, everything.

Specifically they were arguing China was in the same exact "year" as the United States.

Or maybe people I watched "speak in tongues." Complete morons.

When I was 6 by my older brother "The currents in currant buns are flies". Didn't believe him until I took a bite and felt the texture of the currant. Couldn't eat them again until I was a teenager.

Trump got elected president of the United States.

Twice.
