50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult I talked about this before and will until the end of days because this man deserves to be shamed.

A 23 year-old man, who had the right to vote, who had a driving license, who had a job, and could get married and start a family...

THOUGHT PEOPLE WERE HANGING THE MOON IN THE SKY.

Like, the moon, Earth's natural satellite, was being hung on the sky like... a painting on a wall?

I'm still reeling over that one. This man had gone to school, had a formal education and was actually going to college. He *learned* about that in primary school!

And the kicker? I was the one to explain it to him, because I was his girlfriend at the time.

And let me tell you, things unraveled real fast when I started paying attention and saw through the smokescreen.

Dude was willfully ignorant, and bone-dead stupid on top of it. He was really, really good at hiding it.

I dropped him like the mess he was and dived into more and more books to compensate the loss of brain matter I suffered from going out with him.

50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult I had to explain to my mom that my daughter was growing in my uterus and not my stomach so the hot sauce on my burrito wasn’t going to cause her skin burns. I also explained if she were growing in my stomach, my stomach would certainly cause way worse burns than hot sauce.
It was then that I understood why the school nurse had to explain to me in 5th grade why I kept bleeding through my pants every month at school, and not my mom.

Whether it’s at a party, at work, or during a casual conversation, we’ve all encountered situations where someone asks something that makes you want to pause and question the state of human knowledge.

Here’s the thing: asking questions isn’t bad—part and parcel of development and learning. None of us are born with all the knowledge in the world, and curiosity is an essential part of our lives. There are times, however, that people ask questions that seem to defy basic logic or common knowledge.

50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult I worked tech support for an internet provider a few years back.

A woman calls in, complaining her wifi isn’t working.

Go through the normal troubleshooting questions, what’s your device, how are you connected, and finally “what can you see on your screen?”

Crazy woman (CW): it’s black

Me: how do you mean? Are you getting errors?

CW: the whole screen is black.

Me: have you turned the laptop on?

CW: I can’t.

Me: …. Why not?

CW: I’ve lost the charging cable

Me: ok…uh, do you have another device I can help you connect with? Maybe a tablet or your phone?

CW: no, you need to get the laptop reconnected.

Me: …can you go and buy another charging cable?

CW: no, you need to send me one.

Me: we don’t supply them…also we didn’t supply you with your laptop, we just provide internet

CW: yes, and now you’re not providing me internet, so you need to fix it

40 mins this went on, as my team around me stared in incoherent disbelief that this woman couldn’t understand why her internet provider couldn’t connect wifi to a computer with now power.

I remember hanging up the phone and putting myself on break. My manager looked at me and told me to take a walk, while barely hiding her unrestrained giggles.

50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult That her power was shut off because she didn't pay her electric bill for three straight months, and the letters on neon yellow paper from the power company were sent to warn her of this happening.

She thought she was legally entitled to free electricity because "it's a requirement for human survival."

Edit to add: She wasn't in need. She worked a very well-paying job, and she enjoyed shopping for expensive things. This was *not* one of those situations where she needed assistance or mercy. She needed a foot lodged firmly in the backside, and the power company put on its boots.

You might find yourself sitting in a meeting when someone asks if the office will be open on Christmas Day—despite it being a national holiday. Or you may even be engaging in a conversation with one of your friends who, out of nowhere, asks whether brown cows give brown milk. You cannot help but blink at these questions, wondering what planet you are on.

But before we jump to conclusions, it is worth analyzing what makes such questions possible in the first place. There are situations where people are just credulous or ignorant about certain things. It could be, somehow, they never got the opportunity to know it, or perhaps they’ve been given wrong information.

50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult (from a vet tech)

1) That the ticks on a male dog were actually nipples...and that male dogs have nipples...just like every other mammal.
2) That a rabbit that clearly has visible testicles was a male.
3) That you cannot feed an animal that is strictly a carnivore (a ferret, fyi) a "vegan" diet (that thing so SO sick when it came in).
4) That yes, when you have two animals (same species) of opposite genders in the house and they aren't spayed/neutered...they will breed. Even if they're mother/son, brother/sister, different ages, different sizes, different breeds, etc. You'd be shocked at how many people "didn't think this would happen".

What’s more interesting is how many people are afraid to ask questions because they don’t want to appear stupid. The fear of looking foolish in front of others can stop us from seeking out the knowledge we need. In a way, this fear can be more damaging than asking an ‘obvious’ question. It hinders us from learning, growing, and understanding the world better.

50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult I had to explain to 2 teenage girls (15 and 16) that the reason the candle went out was because they put the glass lid back on it's jar. 1 of them said that fire can only be put out with water. I explained that fire needs oxygen and putting the lid back on it cut the supply. When they didnt understand after explaining a few times I had to explain it to them like toddlers. "Fire is hungry, so it eats the air. When all the air is gone, it goes to sleep. Bye bye fire." The double "ohhhh" was too much.

P.S. The look on their mama's face was so funny. She turned to me, threw her hands up, and said "I've failed." In the most defeated tone. That poor woman.

Edit: I would like to point out that we did, in fact, have a serious talk to these girls about proper fire safety, and when to NOT use water on an open fire.

Two sheltered teens ask me in front of their mother if they could get HIV from a toilet seat. I explained to them that yes, it was possible but the following would have to happen: 1. a person with HIV would have to leave body fluid (blood, semen, blood, a**l fluid, or breast milk) on a toilet seat. Then, they with an open wound on their buttocks, or lady parts would have to, use the toilet in such a way that the still wet body fluid would come into contact with the open wound. I pointed out that if the open wound was on the buttock this wouldn't be difficult but if the open wound were on their lady parts, flexibility and dexterity would be required. I then asked them, if they entered a stall and saw wet body fluid on the seat, would they still use that toilet including straddling the seat so that their lady parts were touching or would they go to a different toilet. They said, they would not use that toilet. I could tell the mom was paying attention as well - she had no idea.

50 Things People Never Thought They’d Have To Explain To Another Adult I had to explain to a fully grown adult that yes...your car's keyless entry remote does indeed have a battery in it just like a TV remote and yes the button stopped working because the battery is dead and you need to replace it. I also had to tell him that if you're going to buy huge bags of dry dog food and keep it in your garage which you leave open most of the time...you might want to actually close the bag and maybe even put the closed bag in a container with a lid instead of letting it sit completely open and then always wondering why the dog food is full of bugs, spoils fast and attracts rats and raccoons.

I wish I could say he was a super brilliant engineer or something but yeah...no.

Fun fact, my wife's car has push button start that requires the working key fob be in the car. If the battery dies, you're supposed to push the button WITH the key fob. YMMV.

I worked for a business owner that couldn't understand the concept that, yes, the cook's name is spelled J-o-s-e but that doesn't mean it must be pronounced the traditional Latin way. I really couldn't tell if it was an obstinate-ignorant situation or if the dude was racist; either way, it was incredibly frustrating to hear him repeatedly mispronounce the man's name.

At the elementary level, they don't become teachers because they are knowledgeable, but because they got a degree in education. I've found most K-12 teachers to have very little intellectual curiosity and don't care that they know very little. (One of the reasons kids are strongly encouraged to read fiction and are unconsciously discouraged from reading non-fiction, unless it's a textbook.) It's terrifying. I have a sister who was a teacher for a while. Academically she was very gifted. She is a good person. But she had the intellectual curiosity of a knat. I read one of her college-assigned books for fun, and she just could not understand why I did that, even when I explained.

Some of it is also willful ignorance. People will form an opinion with no facts or on what someone else told them once, and believe that as the truth forever no matter what evidence is later presented. A complete unwillingness to learn or change even if otherwise they are intelligent. If you challenge someone's opinion they will cling tighter to it.

So I told him that kcal is the unit for the amount of energy in food so you cannot have high energy and low kcal.

The father of one of my best friends in high school was so cheap he removed the light bulbs from their refrigerator to save money, but kept a flashlight with D-Cell batteries next to it so the family could see inside... As you may know, batteries (especially disposable) are expensive. I asked my friend if his father knew the light goes off when the door closes, he kinda just shrugs. Father was an immigrant from Mexico (maybe fridges work differently down there?), but neither poor enough to be that cheap nor uneducated - he was a practicing pediatrician (physician for children) in a wealthy area of the US.

I had an air-headed cousin growing up. She was the princess of the grandparents and was spoiled rotten, so my bro and I never felt bad making fun of her. At my house, we grew up w/o a dishwasher, so we had to do dishes by hand. As she stood there complaining, my mom said, "Just think, before we had running water, we had to wash the dishes down by the creek. And my cousin replied, "Really???" Now, this was probably around 1990. Then once, while we were in the car, I turned to her and said, "Look! Trees!" and she replied, "Where?" ... as we were passing a forested area. I could go on with these. She also would go to pay for something that was maybe $12... she'd hand the cashier a $20 and walk off without change. She just thought that if it was above one denomination, you had to give a higher one and that was it. We had to explain that she would get cash back. She was a teenager at the time.

I had to explain to her that she could either knock on the door and see if the custodian was there, or to go and come back later. She had to be in her mid 20s.

My sister (an academically gifted and very sweet person) had some mental discrepancies. I told her when she was in college that the contents of every non-fiction piece of writing just came from someone's head - their imagination, their observations, their conclusions, their summation, their hypothesis. It was just a person. She was astounded. To her, books were sort of "written in stone". They just WERE. They simply existed. Yes, she knew they had an author. But it was like she couldn't question it, either to dispute it, or to wonder about additional information on the subject. She couldn't understand that a book was the product of it's time. She especially did not understand that you and I could also come up with hypothesis or summation, etc. It's hard to explain her mindset. Also, she became a K-12 teacher. She, a very sweet person with absolutely no intellectual curiosity whatsoever.

She asked if we all knew what she meant and I said no. She started to explain and the manager said It's what we called a bit box when we were young. Later, a student came up to me and admitted that she didn't know and was so pleased when I said that I didn't as she didn't like to admit it.

It's hard to make sense of, but from the way my mum told it to me, it seemed this 20-something woman thought that Earth was a shell around the universe (so, like, if you fired a rocket from Earth, and it kept going in a straight line, it would hit whichever country was opposite from yours on the inside of the shell - get the picture?). She grew up in Communist Czechoslovakia; maybe their education suffered under the political system? Might that be the case?

We managed because we had a very large area of nearly untapped resources and made use of them during the Industrial Revolution. We also had learned scientists from other countries come here during our hey day. Now, as far as I can tell, many people cheat their way through college, due to parental pressure or greed. The Evangelical Christians, who used to just mind their business, now vote and put pressure on school boards to not teach. Republicans like that, because their corporate overlords thinks that makes us suspectable to propaganda, about which they are correct. I also suspect lead poisoning has hurt us worse than people realize, contributing to this. Another issue is the cultural idea of individualism. This has lead many parents to think that their kids just "need to learn to be independent" and then they've done their jobs well. As such, many, perhaps most parents don't actually teach their kids anything. And don't encourage their kids to treasure getting an education.

In high-school, there was this... very nice but very dumb girl. First cold day of the year, -15°C. I used my scooter with 2 pairs of gloves and a double mountain coat. I was warming up near the heater when she came in, all shivering, and told me she was *so* cold. She came in a moped and wore a crop top under a thin leather jacket. "But I have style"... Another day, I was listening to music with a friend during recess. It was Die Moldau (Smetana). She came in, listened a minute and asked what it was. I answered. She said "oh, ok. I thought it was classical music". I told her it was. "Oh, I thought classical music was Mozart". It was to much to explain. And last but not least, one day she told me she could never be a sports teacher. I assumed "yes it's a lot of work and studies and you have to understand the human body, it's not that easy", and she said "Yes ! And you have to wear the same sweatpants the whole day !". She passed her final exams with honors !
