While reality is a shared experience, it's extremely easy to forget that the people you share that reality with might have some freakishly incorrect assumptions about it. You could be working with the same reasonable seeming coworker for 6 months, and then one day he hits you with "man, the sun is getting dimmer, I hope they change it soon. And you're like "excuse me?" And he's like "The sun, they have to change it every year around January. That's why it gets so cold in the winter." And now you're stuck wondering how this person clothes and feeds themselves, let alone hold down a job.
This kind of premium, uncut dumbness is all around us, and it's never going away soon. All we can really do is file it away in the back of our minds and wait for the right opportunity to tell other people about it. Maybe it's fun. Maybe it's just coping.
Here are some more of the dumbest things people heard out of another person's mouth.
