I had no clue! That's useful information.

  It's also useful to learn not to spout off when you "have no clue".

    Yes but until one doesn't know one hasn't a clue then what does one do? Apart from 'spout off'?

      Listen to those who have a clue. One can assume one doesn't have a clue about things one isn't a specialist in, so it isn't a big mystery. Unless one assumes one is smarter than everyone around them, even on topics they haven't bothered to study. /sort of fed up with tech today, sorry
