When was the last time someone stunned you with a statement? - Lemmy.World

Thinking about a conversation I was having with an acquaintance years ago. He was a friend of a friend and we were talking about food. I forget the exact phrasing but I brought up loving avocados. He said “what’s that?” I was a bit surprised and explained. He responded “OH thats crazy I thought that was one of those made up words”. The statement was like a flashbang I had to contemplate for a few minutes.

I had a girlfriend many years ago who asked me to disconnect the ventilation fan in her bathroom. When I asked why, she said, and I quote “That’s for people who smell when they go to the bathroom”.

This fellow human was literally telling me her shit don’t stink. I was flabbergasted…

Using them for that is fine, but they are for getting the humid air out when you shower/bath!
