A term used by certain minorites to describe anyone who is pissing them off. Ironically, ask them what it means, and they won't have a clue. All you'll get as an answer is a clenched fist to the head (for being ignorant of course).

A word stupid people use because they think it's a synonym for "stupid". It really means "lack of knowledge", while stupid means "lacking mental capability". But it has 3 syllables, and other stupid people don't really know what ignorant means, so you'll commonly see this word being slung around in arguments between morons.
Dude I hate math, it's so ignorant.
That's not what ignorant means Jimmy, just stop using words if you don't know what they mean, you sound stupid.

Dictionary.com defines ignorant as "lacking in knowledge or training; unlearned," "lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact," "uninformed; unaware," "due to or showing lack of knowledge or training." People today use the term "ignorant" to define people or statements they find rude or offensive. Unless the person's words actually are based on a lack of knowledge, he is not ignorant. Being rude and offensive is different from being unlearned.

Contrary to popular belief, being ignorant is not direct stupidity, but simply being "Ignore-ant" in other words, choosing not to listen to obvious fact.
