I work with a woman who believes she is the most wise and informed person alive, but is shockingly consistent in how very wrong she is about almost everything. Whether it’s a completely incorrect fact or a misunderstanding of how letters work, she’s always sure to hit you with a “Believe it or not, [insert either extremely common or wildly incorrect knowledge here]”.

Recently she went on for a day about the new Napoleon cake out bakery was selling, and wound up buying half a cake for herself. She invited several of us back to try this Napoleon cake (which was nice of her). As you have likely predicted, though, this was not a Napoleon cake.
