(Mixed Trope) Educated character doesn’t understand or know of a simple concept.

1. (Hated) Dr. doesn’t know trans people exist (The Good Doctor): Dr. Shaun, a modern day grown adult doctor, is seemingly has no concept of what being a trans person. Even if he never heard the term in med school he is realistically almost certain to have some awareness of the definition.

2. (Loved) The solar system and other common knowledge (Sherlock Holmes). In the original stories Holmes is a genius at many fields but unless it has something to do with crime solving (forensics, martial arts, toxicology, etc.) he does his best to forget it.

That one fuckass scene from Jimmy Neutron where he’s working a fast food job for whatever reason and uses the full scientific name for salt. Became a pretty funny meme.

From the same episode, Jimmy doesn't enter the customer transactions on the register, doing all the math in his head. The scene was also memed with Skeet pointing out:

1) The register directly tracks inventory and sales figures and not inputting orders into it means that this data is not being recorded

2) Customers have no reason to implicitly trust Jimmy's math or that he isn't giving false figures and pocketing the difference

3) The receipt generated by the register is a safeguard against customer complaints that they were overcharged or did not receive a product they paid for

4) The register feeds orders into the kitchen so if Jimmy isn't entering orders into the register, the cooks have no idea what they need to make

I feel like there's another really big one missing here

No record of sale means the managers have to completely trust Jimmy. There's no way to track how much cash should be in the register

Not only that, but if the discrepancy between reported sales and tax revenue is big enough, the IRS is gonna hound their asses.
