Saying 'what kind of an idiot doesn't know about the Yellowstone supervolcano' is so much more boring than telling someone about the Yellowstone supervolcano for the first time.
Description
This is certainly a great approach to take with someone that doesn't know something, rather than taking the "idiot" approach. However, this math assumes that 100% of people know certain things by the time they are 30. I know that there are a lot of people over 30 that haven't yet seen Diet Coke and Mentos. If you are one of those people, here you go.[1] This also assumes that 10,000 people learn of something every day from the day they are born. I don't know if there are people out there showing their newborns the Diet Coke and Mentos experiment.
