When I was in high school these were the top stupid answers people gave:

Smallest bird: the mosquito

The Pampas were located somewhere in China

Charles Darwin was a fictional character.

Someone asked the exchange students from England if they speak English there.

I (german) was on an exchange to the USA (Austin, Texas specifically) and I was asked whether I spoke German. After I said that I was from Germany.

Also one time a girl asked me and another exchange student to say something in German and we said like „Hi my name is [ ] and I’m from Germany“ or something like that and she started shrieking bc she was so amazed we spoke another language

And we were laughed at for not saying the pledge of allegiance as well

There’s more

My mom genuinely thought giraffes were carnivores

I told a classmate id got to the library after a short class trip and he was like „you gonna break in and steal a book?“ (like jokingly) and I was confused and was like „uh, what?“ and he was like „well, do you have any money?“ and I was like „it’s a library.“ and he just. Didn’t know what a library was. Like he thought you have to buy the books. In the library.

When I was in elementary school in my first science class our teacher put up pictures of different stuff and told us to sort them to chemistry, biology and physics. And my entire fucking class was convinced that lightning was biology bc „it moved“ and I could not convince them otherwise.

My grandma once explained to me that homosexuality is a genetic disease caused by too much medication during pregnancy, but she changed her mind about it now

My friend’s Spanish exchange partner was convinced Spanish ppl had brought culture to South America when they colonised it and killed the indigenous ppl. He was also convinced that Spain was very close to world domination during the period of colonialism, which just. Is wrong.

Also my uncle says lots of rlly dumb shit all the time but that’s too much to write down here

There are approx. 200 species of scyphozoa (true jellyfish)! They’re separated into 4 orders, those being: stauromedusae, coronatae, semaeostomeae, and rhizostomeae.

Hydrozoans are similar, but different. They are closely related and share a lit of similarities.

To help with this: Portuguese man o’wars and by-the-wind-sailors aren’t true jellyfish. Helmet jellies, cannonball jellies, and cauliflower jellies are true jellyfish

i love jellyfish, come to me my little cuddly brainless babies

ok but you can’t generalise spoons like that, the southeast-Asian spoons are better tasked for both the dishes and the texture/consistency of the soup they are meant for. As someone who likes soups from all over the world I have observed general differences in them.

The first (left) spoon is usually used for soups consisting of noodles, several chunky(-ish) add-ins like meat and veggies and a thin broth. It is eaten by starting with veggies etc and then spooning the broth (it is ofc not separated that clearly but that’s about like that)

The latter (right) spoon is used to eat soups in which there’s no clear separation between broth and add-ins and often cream soups or cereal. It’s task is not to efficiently help you eat broth, but the soup with everything in it. Due to it being flatter, it’s better suited for scooping up the chunky stuff and broth at the same time, although not getting as much broth. But the soup it is made for usually has less broth than the soup the first spoon is used for.

Another thing to consider are the dishes, the first spoon is better suited for deep round bowls, while the latter is better for deepened plates.

Overall: first spoon -> small chunks + broth second spoon -> big chunks + less broth

this ofc only applies to soups and foods souplike in texture, like cereal or joghurt.

Conclusion: both have their pros and cons, I wouldn’t try to eat German potato soup with the Asian spoon or pho with the Western spoon.

In Season 4, Episode 3 of Community, Toby(a guy at a inspector spacetime convention) says this to abed, so it is actually canon that abed is not neurotypical. It would be heavily hinted at anyway, but this literally confirms it

Netflix won’t let me screenshot the picture with it, time stamp in the episode is 13:49

the thing I love about the barbie movie hype is that it’s revealing how people played with barbies when they were a kid. I only had Barbies so typically I chose the lesbian affairs and murder plotting route, but if I was at a friend’s house and they had a Ken, I’d often go bisexual marital troubles. hey sound off how you played with your barbies I’m curious now

Ok ok I was rlly a nOt lIkE tHe oTHeR gIrLS girl and I had a cowgirl Barbie and I did the “rich girl comes to the farm and is a bitch and cowgirl Barbie makes her do work and the power of friendship and working on a farm and etc. and then they’d be besties in the end”

Also “the Barbie fam has to rush with their pink camper to a big ball” (a friend had the camper)

And that friend also had Barbie and her sisters and we always played the Cinderella-adjacent “Barbie and her sisters and Ken enslave the youngest sister and in the end she gets her revenge”

there's still a week left for the funniest possible thing to happen (charles dying before the coronation) like to charge reblog to cast or whatever

i don’t wish death upon ppl but this is to fucking funny not to

Modern Seinfeld episode where Elaine has a new boyfriend that's a furry artist that makes absolute bank from commissions, but she doesn't know, and when she finally finds out she's not shocked about him being a furry artist, she's shocked about him being so rich and her never knowing about it. This makes him 10X more attractive to her

at first reading I thought this was describing an actual episode from the show I can’t

i get the sentiment behind "you already have a gender neutral bathroom in your own home," but i also find it really naively hilarious that people don't know that middle-class and upper-class american conservatives do, in fact, frequently have one bathroom for the girls and one for the boys in their own homes.

they have TWO WHOLE bathrooms? In one house? Omg living the dream
