Stupid things people say

[phillgt2002]

Oh my god. I'm doing my presentation for my class and as I'm finishing I reach for my USB to take it out and this lady yells across the room and says "make sure you eject it on the computer before you take it out so you don't lose your files" I take it out and say dammit even though I know ejecting doesnt do much. So stupid and funny.

What is this and what is this used for?
You: (provides brief explanation)
Customer: Are you sure?

Giving Cash-back.
There was also:
"Green", "Money",and "dollars"

From my days working in a Hifi shop.

Paraphrased:-

Customer: I need a pair of interconnects.
Me: how long do you need them?
Customer: about 2 weeks
Me: no, sorry, what length do you need them?

Which is funny to me because of the misunderstanding, but also, why would you only need the leads for 2 weeks??

Perhaps they have something happening in that 2 weeks' time and need whatever it is set up, such as a gathering/party.

Or they intend to be like Costco shoppers and return stuff after the party's over.

@XS - that story had me in stitches.

One phrase I find funny and stupid...

"I could care less"

???

So you do care? ...a little bit?

 

[AOS-]

It should be "couldn't care less"? Sometimes I think "couldn't care more" can say the same thing in that you really don't care.

 

[Bopop4]

If you couldn't care less then you are at the max level of non-careness.

Opposite for couldn't care more, although I've never heard anyone use that expression.

Actually you're correct, Jared asked for an apology before I did, as I was speaking with the police officer. She told him that she was not in the wrong, and anybody in her shoes would have done the same thing. When Jared told her he was Japanese and not Mexican, all she said was, "I don't care". When I asked her to apologize she said a quick, sarcastic "sorry" and stormed out.

They should've arrested her for harassment.

Exactly. If Joe Bloggs down the road wants to sit in front of the TV watching Teletubbies all day long.... I couldn't care less, because I really don't care what he does.

 

[jacnob]

I'm really bothered by white people using the n-word to refer to other white people, or just all people really.

 

[AOS-]

The n-word (I take it you're speaking of the shortened version) at this point is colloquially used to refer to just about anyone. It's like it developed a new meaning. It makes so little sense and it's silly.

 

[Sage Ages]

Doesn't 🤬 literally mean "ignorant" or something similar?


The irony.

People who say owners of Porsche's, BMW's, Ferrari's and MB's are compensating for something for driving those cars. It makes me think themselves would compensate for something if they had those cars, if that's the only reason they can come up with.

Tupac probably said it best
"“****** was the ones on the rope,
hanging off the thing. ******* is the ones with gold ropes,hanging out at clubs.”
then "Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished."
