Pseudoscience can become science, but ONLY through scientific testing, not through anecdotes from true believers. And scientists can be closed minded to things they don't like, but WILL change their mind when proof appears. Scientists refused to accept the fact of evolution, plate tectonics, germ theory, or bacteria causing ulcers. But all of them were proven true. "Pseudoscience" became science through proof, not emotions. [ https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20727772-000-zeros-to-heroes-ulcer-truth-was-hard-to-stomach/ ]

I was working for a contracting company and doing work for a hospital. I started off just hooking up and moving PCs. Really basic stuff that anyone who can walk and chew gum could figure out. And a lot of the people they hired had a hard time with that.

After the project was done the hospital realized I wasn't a moron and kept me around. I worked my way up to a system admin level job. And the contracting company had to cut my pay. I asked for a raise and explained to them how I was doing far more advanced work but I heard the stupidest thing I've ever been told.

My "boss" ( all he did was sign a check ) explained to me by getting a $2/hr pay cut I will be better off because I will be paying less taxes. I started off making $16/hr.

My contract ended a bit later and I got hired on directly and got a really nice raise.

When I was playing WoW and every guild having their own forum was a thing, a guild member posted some photos of his kills from a hunt.

Now it’s important to say that at the time I didn’t have strong opinions on hunting, and this in particular is not the point of the stupid statement, but is the cause of it.

The whole guild of members made fun of him for killing defenseless animals to the point where he made the following comment, slightly paraphrased because it’s been 18 years:

“OH YEA WELL YOU GUYS THINK YOURE SO INNOCENT GOING IN AND KILLING RAGNAROS EVERY WEEK AND ALL OF THOSE RAID BOSSES?”

To be clear, he was comparing actually hunting a defenseless animal to killing bosses in a video game, and yes he was very serious.

Heard a boomer I work with say to another in reference to a storm we were getting: "This generation has got the weather so f****d up nowadays."

You might think he meant generation as in time period, but if you knew the guy like I do, you would know he was actually blaming young people for the weather being inclimate.

My sister-in-law once came up with a classic. Talking about someone she knew who had been in an accident, she announced, 'He was a vegetable. Like, literally a vegetable.' Actually, if he was literally a vegetable, he'd be, like, literally an actual vegetable. She's about as dumb as, like, a literal vegetable.

Worked in a school and got into an argument with a teacher's aide - she thought Alaska was an island ... next to Hawaii ... a few miles off the coast of southern California. I had to get a globe out and show her where they were. This led to my realization that she also believed Canada was in Europe, Mexico was in South America, and the US was "just a big island" 🫣

Many United States maps have Alaska and Hawaii in a little box on the lower left. That is why a surprising number of people think Alaska is an island.

I once had a woman ask me for advice. She was planning to sell her house, and it needed new carpet, but she was concerned that people might not like the color of the new carpet. I suggested researching the cost of new carpet, and telling prospective buyers that she had lowered the price for the house to allow them to put in whatever kind they wanted. Her reply was "But what if I did that, and they bought the house, and then didn't get new carpet?" I believe that in her mind she thought she'd somehow be cheated if that happened.

My husband and I used to play cards with another newly wed couple early in our marriage. Once I was the dealer and shuffled the cards a whole bunch of times. The other couple insisted that "if you shuffle more than three times, the cards will come back around" to the arrangement they were in when you started. My husband and I were baffled and asked them to clarify. They both insisted you couldn't shuffle the cards more than Three times or it was like you'd never shuffled them at all. Both people were masters degree students and otherwise quite intelligent. My husband and I still crack up about this situation 24 years later.
