About This Quote

The term "shock" is commonly used to mean "surprise." However, it can also be used to refer to something that causes surprise or disbelief. This is usually meant as a sarcastic comment on the belief that the speaker's lack of knowledge about some subject is surprising. For example, if someone says, "I didn't know there were so many types of birds," the listener may reply, "That's hardly a shock. You've seen one bird, how could you have not known there are more?”
