ignorance

There's such a thing as blissful ignorance, but we're pretty sure these people aren't it. We do feel sort of bad for them, but at the same time, they provide us with a lot of entertainment, and they kind of make us feel better about our own intellect...

You don't have to look far to find breathtaking ignorance in the United States. Anti-vaxxers, flat-earthers, people who actually believe 5G is the cause of coronavirus (it's not). Today, however, we're bringing you a refreshing tale of major stupidity from across the pond, in Europe. Twitter user @Archer_RS went viral yesterday after sharing an unfinished saga about dealing with his English neighbors who voted for Brexit. It seems they did not realize that their holiday home in France would be compromised by the separation from the EU. And appealed to our hero for help.

Our storyteller agreed to assist them, even going as far as to deal with their drunk son and secure him a Friday meeting with the town's Mayor. If you're getting some serious Karen vibes, you're not alone. This tire fitter (and drunk texter) really believes that having a chat with a French mayor will change anything about his parents situation. This delusional dolt even threatened to speak to Nigel Farage. It seems when people don't actually look into the lies that are being sold to them, they ultimately suffer. At least we're gaining some serious entertainment. Even better? Archer's sitting in on Friday's meeting of the minds as a translator. It's nice to have something to look forward to. 

We'll never get tired of Avengers memes, and we hope you feel the same way. This trending meme references a scene in Thor: Ragnarok where Loki lies that he's never met his brother Thor in his life. The meme makes fun of the ridiculous plot-hole ignorance of TV characters and more.

Move over, Stevie Wonder. There's a new blind man meme in town. Ray Charles is the latest visually impaired musician to star in a trending meme, and these are pretty damn good. The image macros are supposed to represent moments of feigned ignorance, whether political, historical, or just purely relatable. While some of these examples of "looking the other way" are insidious in nature, other memes poke fun at our internet habits or family dynamics. They're all pretty damn funny.
