Just thought of another one...

When I was about 17, a friend of mine was trying to quit smoking. I saw him at school and he looked a little pale. I asked him what was wrong and he said that he "quit cold turkey" and thought it was making him sick.

"Why, because of the withdrawal?" I asked him.

"No, I think that eating the uncooked turkey gave me food poisoning or something."

I swear that it's true. When I started laughing at him and explained to him what "cold turkey" really means, he was mortified and got all panicky and tried to get me swear never to tell any of our other friends what he'd done.

The interesting part is that he took "cold turkey" to mean "cold *raw* turkey"...and this was one of the smarter guys I knew growing up.

Not dumb in "got hit in the head as a child" dumb, but "I'm trying to look sophisticated and failing miserably" dumn. if you're going to try to pull off "wine snob", at least get your reds and whites straight.

for flat out dumb, here's one from college in Oregon:

"Wow, you drive well, where'd you learn to drive?"
"back home"
"they have cars in hawaii?"

and

"How do the pilots find the islands when you go to hawaii?"
"well, they have established routes and flight paths, I guess"
"How do they establish the paths? don't the islands float into different locations from time to time?"

both were straight up serious.

No, her husband's parents. My parents would not be considered my girlfriend's sister's in-laws, even if I was married to my girlfriend.
