Blonde Moment

jester77

I had one recently with my gf.

She was on the couch watching a cookery show and I was reading a book when I heard the woman on the TV say "and now you put the cake into the over at 90 degrees"

I turned around to my gf with a look of confusion and ask "Why did she say 90 degress, what other angle would you put something into the oven at?"

i found one

Cream Scone Recipe

260 of grams flour
50 of grams granulated sugar
10 grams of baking powder
75 grams of unsalted butter
A large egg
A teaspoon of vanilla
120 ml of milk or cream (or half-and-half)

Preheat oven to 90 degrees C. Place some parchment paper on a baking tray. Whisk together the baking powder, sugar, salt and flour in a large bowl. Cut up the butter into small pieces, add to the mix and blend with fingertips until it looks like coarse crumbs. Whisk the milk, vanilla and egg (beaten) together, add to the mixture and stir. Place this onto a floured surface and knead gently a few times and pat into a 7 inch round. Flour a round cutter and cut this dough into rounds. Place these onto the parchment sheet already prepared and space them a few inches apart. To brown the scones during the baking, lightly put a little cream on the tops of the scones. You should bake for about 16 minutes or until they are browned nicely. Take them from the oven and allow to cool.

it's a scone but still

I was thinking the same? 190 is par for the course. At 90 degrees it wouldn't even set :pac:

Or is it the fact that you heard her say she was going to put it in the "over at 90 degrees" and not the oven??

antidote to what?

My father was on holidays in Italy and brought me back a Juventus jersey - the black and white stripped one.

I showed it to herself who asked "why did he buy you a referees jersey?!"

syklops

I just had one now. Im listening to Derek Mooney, and I took off my earphones to listen to Miss South Carolina's video clip.

That Liveline thread has my head melted.

Blonde moment

Witchie

My little sister (who happens to be blonde but one of the smartest people on the planet!) constantly has blonde moments.

One of the best was while driving on the motorway to Dublin a few years ago and there was some works being done with a new bridge being built. She asked me "why are they taking that bridge down?"

She also suggested that hats be made using hair for bald people........eh wigs exist don't they???

Too many funny moments with her. She is such a doll.

looseliver

...oh wait, 90 degrees. Yeah, now I get it!
-Good one!

There was a really annoying comedian doing the rounds in Australia when I was growing up and she was always picking on people in the audience in order to be 'funny'.

She had a cleft palete, but I called it a treble clef for years till someone finally corrected me.

I was 18..... but still

Sat into my car yesterday, turn the key, put on my seat belt, turned on the radio, put the car into gear, took off the handbrake and....nothing!

A good 30 seconds past before I realised I hadnt started the engine!

hondasam

My biggest one was putting petrol in my diesel car and I dunno if that was blonde or just fcuking stupid.

Canard

Am I missing something or...
Who would physically put a cake in an oven at 90 degrees anyway? Surely it goes in at 180 degrees? 90 would mean its sideways..? :pac:

How do u turn on your car....

Feeona

In Iceland at Gullfoss (waterfall). My friend who's a Geography teacher was giving me the lowdown on how the waterfall was formed ie a glacier melted blah de blah. So I turned to her and said 'So basically the glacier just melted and (I clicked my fingers then ) we had a waterfall?'

I just remember her slowly turning to look at me with a look on her face that said 'How the f*ck am I going to explain this?'

its actually worse the other way round....

with petrol in a diesel engine you can siphon it back out and fill it with diesel and it will chug n splutter for a few mins but then its grand

with diesel in a petrol engine you have to wash out the engine before it will start.

It took more than a few minutes to fix it tbh, had to get it towed, filters changed before it was ok.

Last weekend I parked mam's car, got out of the car closed the door and walked off. Was about 30 seconds down the road before I realised I had left the key in the ignition and the car unlocked

I once couldn't find my keys when I was leaving the office, searched everywhere for them, decided to check the car and I had left them in the ignition with the radio and lights on. Battery was dead, had to get jump started.

This was the same day I had ran out of petrol on the way to work

Oh and I had also left my phone at home so I had a nightmare trying to get someone to help me.

Jen Pigs Fly

I have the all the time haha.

Just asking stupid things really.

I'm not blonde I swear I just have dipsy moments

This happens too often - I will be chatting on the phone while getting ready to leave the house, do the pat down - keys, smokes, money, phone ... wait where's my phone! Cue mad panic trying to find the phone only to hear the person I'm talking to laughing. Completely forgot I was on the phone.

happens way too often ...

sebastianlieken

On the phone to my friend, who asks me for another friends mobile number.

*spends a good minute looking for my phone*

...realise I have the phone in my hand pressed up against my head.

</blond moment>

One time, my Dad was talking about some 'debate' he and a guy from the pub were having about Nelson's Pillar, and what year it was bombed.

I hadn't even heard of it before, but after of few minutes of him talking about it, I go "but why was he up there in the first place?"
DOH!
He laughed at me
