What Are Things You've Heard That Made You Facepalm?

This website tells it all. Funnily enough, I cannot access the NASA website from my schools internet but I can access this. If you have the time go ahead and read these! They are hilarious. Apparently 'the atomic bomb couldn't exist because atoms don't exist!' What is the reply 'What about WW2 and the cold war?' 'Just propaganda and the US used only firebombs'

I am done... The internet... So much potential, so few results...

Yeah, they are my citation for human stupidity in my signature.

My mum came out with a good one: "If they really landed on the Moon, why did they only do it once?"

It's not as if she's even too young to remember, she was an adult throughout the entire Apollo programme! She was genuinely surprised to learn that there were 6 missions that landed and a further 3 that flew by the Moon.

The question of why we stopped going there is a legitimate one, though. :(

"Rockets in vucuum have a terminal velocity. They can only go as fast in one direction as the stuff they are propelling out their backside in the other direction"

also

"Lightspeed beeing the upper limit is nonesense. You will see - they thought they same about the speed of sound"

A few of my "friends" insist that zodiac symbols affect you. "Most zodiac stuff is correct", and "You are stuck on the ones that aren't true"... yeah. I just gave up trying

"You're stuck on the ones that aren't true."

Yep. Next time I lie about something and someone calls me a liar, I'll say "You're only paying attention to what I say that isn't true..."

10/10 best tactic.

Introduce them to sporalogy. Nils Mustelin, a Finnish astronomer and physicist showed that the positions of the Helsinki trams would have far more to say than distant planets.

But one easily answered ... the whole moon thing was primarily a political motivated project in order to beat the USSR ...

after that had been reached and also the public excitement about moon landings ebbed

there was no more reason (at least for the government) to fund the expensive and risky project any longer

when somebody says that LIGHTYEAR is unit of TIME ... it makes me don't wanna live on this planet anymore

Edit: or when my friend was trying to persuade me that Nibiru (planet X) really exist, that NASA has confirmed it and its moving towards Earth causing big seismic activity and even star shifting :D then she insisted that Earth is in fact hollow. I proved everything she told wrong but she still insisted it was right and I need to read it on some website with some very strange name

I'm at an interview, I didn't have to bring my resume and certificates because I already emailed them to the company way in advance. Welcome to the 21st Century.

I'm then told by the hiring manager my background is not in IT and so unsuitable for the job.

In my resume, I listed 7 years working as an IT administrator and listed my desktop and network troubleshooting experience, albeit, that wasn't my job title as I pulled double duty as head of department for a property trading outfit.

Yeah. Ever heard of "career change" - its mentioned in my career goals on the front page of the resume, backed by 11 certificates I got last year from attending IT certification courses. And 7 years of troubleshooting expertise.

ROSETTA AND PHILAE ARE A HOAX, WE NEVER LANDED ON IT

After all, neither NASA nor the ESA has put a man on the relatively stationary Moon since 1972 (allegedly) and its only 249,000 miles away from Earth. Conversely, the 67P comet is some 310,000,000 miles away from Earth and moving at 23.6 miles per second. Therefore, the likelihood that a 10-year old spacecraft landed on the comet first try around is highly improbable to say the least.

Maths? Pfft.

Evidence:

1. No Video Footage (GREAT START! SCREW TELEMETRY AND PICTURES!)

2. No Real-Time Communication (Who needs light speed, anyways?)

3. No Aerodynamic Shape (Vacuum? PFFT!)

4. No Stars (Duh, asteroids don't reflect light)

5. No Fiery Glow (Asteroids = Mini-stars)

6. No Vapor Trail (Halley's comet has a vapor trail, 67P doesn't. FAKE LANDING!!1!1!!1)

7. No Space Sheer (Philae was only able to get 2 of its legs in contact with the comet, but stood upright in space. A chair can't stand on three legs. Ignore that 67p Gravity ≠ Earth Gravity. )

8. Suspicious Names (Rosetta? ROSETTA STONE!)]

9. Technological Contradictions (

If reports are to be believed, Rosetta and Philae are now “Tweeting†from deep space. We can barely get reliable cellular and Wi-Fi service on Earth yet these spacecraft are Tweeting in real time from 310,000,000 miles away? Even stranger, it was reported on November 15, 2014, that Philae is “asleep†after its batteries ran out. One would think that the ESA would have installed batteries that last longer than 72-hours but clearly that’s not the case. Chances are it’s a convenient way of ending the conversation about the highly improbable comet landing before it even gets started. Needless to say, the technological contradictions surrounding the mission are red flags which suggest that the event never transpired in reality.

)

And finally,

10. 2014 Asteroid Attack (The landing was made by CIA to condition the masses for the man-made asteroid attack of 2014.)

jesus christ someone get me out of here
