Moments Where Someone Had Absolutely No Idea Who They Were Dealing With

Most of us using the Internet know of the one cardinal rule—think before you tweet. However, there are some who believe that they know better. From the guy who accused the Cowboys player for jumping on the bandwagon to the clueless person who called Natalie Portman a “stupid hipster” to Neil Patrick Harris himself not knowing who Rachel Bloom was, here are some moments where people had no idea who they were dealing with.

This woman decided it was time for her Twitter followers to know just how worried she was about climate change. Well, one guy did not appreciate her sharing her perspective and he decided to give his unwarranted opinion on the matter.

Unfortunately, this actually ended up backfiring on him when he learned his lesson the hard way. Telling someone with a Ph.D. in astrophysics that they need to educate themselves sure sounds excessive.

The individual over here was attempting to demonstrate that he was the ultimate *Star Wars* fan until he destroyed his credibility. He didn't recognize that the person he labeled as a “stupid hipster chick” was actually Natalie Portman.

As in, Natalie Portman, the actress who was in many films from the franchise! Can you believe it? He has nobody but himself to blame.

Using a credible paper as a way to demonstrate that someone should rethink their analysis isn't a bad idea. But perhaps this guy should have checked who the author of the paper was.

Not only did he prove that he had no idea what he was talking about, but he also made an absolute fool of himself in front of the author of a paper that he held in such high regard.

It's pretty interesting how people are eager to test whether someone is a true fan or not, instead of just being excited to have found a fellow nerd.

This guy found out pretty quickly that he had wasn't the brightest when he decided to quiz this girl on her knowledge of comics. Dude, this chick is on the Marvel payroll. If that isn’t enough of a credential, we don’t know what is.

Ah, the joys of being patronized about a topic that you are so well versed in that sometimes it makes you want to punch it in the face. This guy had no idea who he was dealing with and this woman sure let him know.

In fact, this response deserves a slow clap while this guy goes to find some ice to put on that burn. It hurts to be patronized, but it feels so good to reply with vengeance.

It’s not like winning a number of Golden Globe Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Academy Awards, and Grammy Awards was enough. Finally, there was a talent scout who recognized what a talent Annie Lennox was and offered her the opportunity to make it big.

It seems like Lennox finally had a chance—a chance to show this talent scout that perhaps she should be doing a little background checking on the artists she was trying to sign.
