Got invited to a dinner party of people I didn’t know well, they were friends of my then girlfriend.
So we were sitting around before dinner chatting and drinking and I brought up a question about something that we were all talking about. I don’t remember what it was but the point was just to keep conversation going and to interact with people. BUT one lady just looked at me and said “why don’t you just Google it?!” Shut down conversation completely.
Sure I could Google it Karen but that doesn’t make for good conversation!
reminds me of a story:

Why would someone say that in the middle of an in-person conversation? What an idiot!
The interesting thing was she was/is a middle school teacher. You’d think she would encourage questions, not just look it up.
But I guess she was trying to help me not be ignorant because I was just killing time … at a party
Untreated mental issues/illness
Let’s all stay ignorant to kill time!
Great story.
