Take, for instance, the Redditor who knew a woman that was fluent in 10 languages, but also believed that donating blood causes a fatal disease, thought flight attendants catapulted out of the plane in case of emergency and maintained that the consumption of too much ketchup caused her son’s knee pain.

Other Redditors have recalled the dumbest smart people they’ve ever known, and the next time you meet someone incredibly stupid, just assume they’re really, really knowledgeable about a different topic.
