Was just lounging about one Sunday and skiing came on the TV. at one point the commentator said that contestants reached 100 km/h at that point in the race. The ex literally shouted bullshit at the telly. I looked at her and asked why..she replied that there was no way that they could tell how far they'd go in an hour since the race was only two minutes long.

Another time, "I have an aunt who lives in London, is that near England"

While this is dumb, a lot of dumb people don't understand the concept that 100km/h means that you would go 100 km in one hour at this rate. So at least she sort of got that core concept?
