I had to explain to a woman once that ice cubes were frozen water. I worked for a call center for appliance questions. She called saying she heard water running from her fridge, but did not know why. I asked her if I had an ice maker and she said yes. I said well then it’s just filling with water to make ice. She didn’t understand, so I explained that the ice maker filled with water and that water froze and became ice cubes. She was still confused, so I said ice cubes are frozen water. She was very surprised to hear that. I had to get off the phone for awhile after that. I was flabbergasted that a person wouldn’t know this.

My friend with a 4.0 gpa in college thought that her windshield wiper fluid refilled every time it rained…. She ran out and exclaimed “it rained yesterday WTF.”

I had to use my girlfriends credit card. She explained to me how very important it was that I types the pin correctly, as she had already typed it wrong 2 times. That is, two times since she got it. She believed you only had 3 times in total before it would be locked.

That NEW MEXICO is a US State and not part of Mexico. Twice on a plane this has happened. Once, the person was visiting from Turkey , so I understood that knowing all 50 States is probably not high on his list . The other guy was American, born and raised. He just could not wrap his head around it. These were both on Seattle to Detroit flights.

A ‘friend” who was on ACA and kept insisting that Obamacare was horrible, but her insurance came from the state. I tried, but there was no way she could grasp the concept.
