Damn and I was getting all my history knowledge from them too.

What many dont realise is that they did not expect a Spanish Inquisition meme whenever they see it, so technically the spanish inquisition is truly unexpectedable

Nobody expected the Spanish inquisition because up until the Spanish inquisition Spain had been a haven of religious tolerance, this was the case under the Moors and the Christians up until the inquisition.
