Back in high school, my best friend called me, absolutely ecstatic, "I failed English but I passed France!!" It's not the dumbest thing she's said.. but it is one of my favorites.
The very same friend was once asked to name a continent and excitedly responded with, "Canada!! ..Right?!" She's the best. I love her so much.
Her brother actually thought Europe was in the US. He's 18. He lives in the US. And he thought Europe was one of our states.
More recently, my mother informed me she wanted to write a book but she was so upset about it. I asked what the issue was and she just said, "I'd have to do it all by hand. I don't have a computer."
"...I bought you a laptop? You use it daily for facebook."
"Yeah but it doesn't let me write stuff on it."
I uh. I'm at a loss here.
