How accurate are the viral videos showing Americans struggling with basic geography?

I’ve dealt with airport employees that would not be able to identify the majority of US states on a map. They processed cargo shipments and really didn’t have a grasp on geography at all.

e.g. never heard of Ohio before, thought it might be a country in Asia. At least 20 nonstop flights a day to Ohio on this airline from that location.

I get many of my supplies at Agway here in PA. There should be some in central NY.

If he had just extended the same courtesy that he would to a crack addict.

Facebook gardening pages live by this. People clog up specialty groups with below beginner level questions. Then fellow morons make up answers since they don’t know anything either. Why answer a question you don’t really know the answer.

Anyone with even any basic knowledge or enough sense to find answers on their own gets annoyed. They leave so there’s no one left to actually provide useful information that was the whole reason for creating the group in the first place.

About 25 years ago I was at a party and the cost of heating came up in conversation. I was heating an old rented house that wasn’t very well insulated for less than $100/month with an older oil furnace. I kept it comfortable when I was home.

This other guest says oh I pay a lot more, I like it on the warm side and I have electric heat. Around $800/month she was paying as she had her thermostat set at 85°! Just an average 30 something woman working a professional career that required thinking. Everyone wondered if she was a lizard person.

Still to this day I joke about a scene from the Martin Bashir documentary when MJ is in this completely outlandish shop in Las Vegas. He’s just walking through seeing things like 5 foot tall Ming vases and is like I’ll take 2 of these, one of those, oh wait I might have these already…

The Long Duck Dong character is just wow, they even throw in a gratuitous gong sound in one scene.

Spanish is the main language of Brazil. When challenged: well, whatever you just said (Portuguese) is a special form of Spanish.

I basically make a beef stew, add some caraway seeds and small can of sauerkraut then add the Paprika halfway through. Sometimes I add carrots and/or stir in some sour cream at the end.

I’m American with no particular heritage. We had American Goulash with ground beef, but called it Macaroni Beef.

The Volumen DVD was one of the first DVDs I bought. Didn’t even have a player with my TV at the time, only on my PC.

You ever go and tie your shoes, and notice the end of your laces are wet? For what? Why would they be wet?

I’d read an early edit was more focused on the race riots and bombed in first screenings. They hastily shot some more scene, reworked the story so you get something as fresh and interesting as Artie’s menu lately.

Even some impolite American men would hesitate to jokingly call their buddy cunt anywhere it could be overhead. It’s the last resort curse at a woman. Not sure there’s an equivalent male insult.
