That one friend who never "gets it"...

[Lord Valumart]

we all have that friend that no matter how often you explain things and how slowly you talk they still have no idea...

i was talking to my mate and somehow the subject of dvds came up and he siad a dvd was the same as a cd and i spent an hour trying to explain to him the difference betwen a cd and a dvd...each time dumbing it down further until i just lost the will to live...

i swear to god an hour and he still didn't get it...my parents understod HD in about a half hour and they barely grasped the concept of sky+.

so anyone else been reduced to tears trying to explain the simple to the stupidly ******ed?

I had to explain to my ex (who is now one of the top Lawyers in my city) how a man & a dog having sex would not produce offspring.

Might I add, before I had to explain this, I said they would have offspring jokingly, and asked her had she not witnessed the dog/human hybrids walking around Liverpool, to which she replied (in a shocked tone) that she hadn't.

I had to explain to me friend why The Happening sucked. He just didn't get it.

 

[Speedball]

My little brother is the one that doesn't get it.
I deleted Microsoft off the desktop once, and he thought I had deleted the computers way of hooking up to the internet...that I had doomed the computer forever...
He was 17 at the time...

I have on going fights with my sister about what came first, the chicken or the egg. She just refuses to believe it was the egg.

All my friends "get it". Or they get it!

 

[The Amazing Lee]

I don't get it

 

[Captain_BluTac]

Now many how many times I try and explain the "Infinite Monkey's with infinite typewriters ect" to my mum, she just doesn't understand, saying "monkeys wouldn't be able to write Shakespeare"

And my friend Mandy can never understand how a man can be raped.

When I was in third grade I was the kid that just didn't get it . I came back the next year and was one of the kids who got it . Some of my friends still didn't get it and I wasn't so sure i wanted it anymore.

Have you ever tried to explain to someone that - the way you see it - humans belong to the category of animals instead of constituting a category of their own and they just didn't understand the way you see it although you perfectly understood the way they're seeing it but happened to find it being a stupid point of view??? Have you?^^

Yes. I remember I was about 10 years old, trying to explain to all the other kids in the class that humans are another species of animal. One of the kids sarcastically said "yeah, you ever see us walk around on all fours growling??" And they all called ME the idiot

The worst thing is, the teacher wouldn't back me up.

The stupidity and ******ation of life in general nearly brings me to tears every day.

If you don't have any friends like that, usually you ARE the friend.

Awh..but haha at some of the entries on this thread!

My dog doesn't get it, I throw the ball....she chases it, she drops it...she comes back to look for it like I've still got it.

I point towards it, she runs the other way.

It's like having GW Bush as a dog...

My manager told me about a boy that used to work for him. A good guy, good ole country boy.

My manager was working on the roof, asking the boy to hand him tools from the ground.

The boy asks "Does the roof go all the way to the back of the building?"

My manager didn't answer him, but the co-workers did. He didn't understand....

Later the same boy, they're heading to downtown. He notices a statue and bellows. "HEY, that looks EXACTLY like the statue downtown!"

He was convinced they weren't downtown.

I had to explain to my friend that Europe doesn't pay more for gas just because they buy it in liters.

My sister (who's 23) thought that half of Asia was China and the other half Japan.

She also somehow confused New Mexico with New England.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

Usually they do get it. When it comes to movies or sports strategies they don't get it : Of course, I don't know the names or the stats of the players but I can point of what strategies will work to their advantage and all they have to say back is "But Christiano Ronaldo wasn't even on the field!!!" and I rub my eyes and walk away.

 

[Erzengel]

All my friends are intelligent.

You know, we get mistaken for not being a state all the time, but England?

 

[Erzengel]

^

As in Mexico?

But in terms of "New England", it does refer to a certain section of the Northeast US, specifically Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Conneticut. And there is a football team associated with New England, so I can see how someone can make a mistake that New England is state. Barely.

Rhode Island is neither a road nor an island.
