The Tiger The Lion And The Donkey (wisdom)

Sounds like ass for dinner tonight... But, the donkey might have been to Ole Ken Tuck... The state of Kentucky.

Been there more times than I should.

Was in my teens, and as most of you fine gentleman know, I'm into motorcycles, a smart individual joined our group and for some reason came into the conversation a 50cc moped which that said individual insisted had a twin cylinder engine.
The stupid in me came out and for a few long minutes, I tried to explain to him that that engine was a single cylinder, not a twin as he was claiming.
This went on until one of my friends intervened and said to me "it has two cylinders as he is saying".
That was my tip, which I immediately caught.
My words "oh, that moped! Yes, you're right. It's a twin cylinder engine. I was confused.".
That was the end of it, I don't remember ever talking to that idiot again, and for the most part, with some very short exceptions, I learned the lesson that day.
