It's a strange feeling to have someone happily inform you that solar panels are going to be too powerful sometime in the near future… because they'll soak up too much sun? Yes, that's a real thing that u/ChanceFray was told by their oddball roommate. They aren't the only person who's had some funny encounters with people who just weren't very bright. When u/noelioli asked, "Who's the stupidest person you've ever met, and what story perfectly sums up their stupidity?" more than 23,600 people shared their own stories.
