There are also things I don't know I know. I was talking science to my friend the other day, and during one of my explanations I accidentally ventured into a topic I was totally unfamilliar with, but then explained it properly. (I looked it up). Not sure if that was just reasoning or I knew it but didn't know I knew it.
That could be true. I was just aiming more towards the fact that a lot of times people think they're so knowledgeable about something when they really don't know what they're talking about.

Haha yeah, I guess everyone's gonna think that.

But there are also things that you know you don't know you don't know. Then again, there are also things you don't know you don't know you don't know.
Good point.
