Sometimes I hear people say really dumbass things. Sometimes I overhear stuff that is so sublimely stupid, I simply can't believe my ears. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone when it comes to this. So, I'm curious. What nuggets of "WTF?" have you guys come across?
Today: (While shopping for beer at Kroger) "Nah, man! Morrison was in The Dead!"
Ever:AND I CHALLENGE ANYONE TO TOP THIS ONE (My ex-roommate's girlfriend talking about Adolph Hitler) "I know his name but what did he do?"
Anyone else got a good one?

Someone once told me Robert Plant was the replacement guitarist for Led Zeppelin after Jimmy Page died. I slapped this person across the face as there are about 5 things wrong with that statement.
Anyone around here in Georgia who believes Obama isnt a citizen of the United States or that his Healthcare Plan contains death panels. give me a f'n break.

My buddy Dave: I always get Neil Young confused with what's his name... Me: Please don't say Neil Diamond. Dave: No, that other guy. The Vegas singer. Oh yeah, Wayne Newton.

At George Clinton, the crowd was chanting, "We want the funk!" A few minutes after the chanting stopped, the girl in front of me turned to her bf and said, "Now, what is it we want again?"

I've got a couple of other classics for you guys.
Back when I was in highschool, back in the days of answering machines, I spent a lot of time at my grandma's house. Her outgoing message would always be automaticly deleted when we lost power. One day, after a storm, I re-recorded it for her (like I almost always did).
Me (on the machine): "Hello. You've reached 555-5555. Sorry we can't get to the phone...." My grandma: "Randy! Don't give my phone number out!"
&
Back in the days of VHS, I got my first apartment with my girlfriend. For whatever reason, we used to watch "Northern Exposure" on A&E a lot. During commercial breaks, There would be ads offering the individual episodes on tape for a staggering $60 EACH!
Me: "Why would anyone ever pay that much? If you want to watch it so bad, why not just tape it yourself?" Her: "But what if you don't have a VCR?"
[EDIT] And an oldie but goodie!

Went to dinner with my family the other night when my grandmother pulls out her cell phone and asks us, "Do you all know how to do text-mexing?"
"oh yeah grandma its easy! first marinate some chicken in lime juice, then add some cumin... grill and slice, add lots of cheese and beer and you are set!
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**

a friends facebook status in regards to 9/11....
Answer me this: why is it that while people die everyday and it's natural to put their deaths in the past, it's necessary to "never forget" an event at which thousands died. Is there a difference?

not funny or dumb but a little creepy. My co worker's boyfriend died of an oxy od recently. She took pics of his dead corpse in a casket and posted them on Facebook.

Not sure where you're co-worker is from, but it's common for people in the South to take photos of deceased loved ones in their caskets. I'm not sure why, but I know (and have seen) people that do this. Yeah it's kinda creepy but it may just be tradition. As for posting the pics on facebook.... well, I guess that's just the next logical step.
