Please tell me this isn't true!!!
 
This deserves a thread of it's own.

Probably the most frightening Youtube video I've ever seen.

Old as in the video is old.
It's depressing how ignorant people are, and how much that ignorance is celebrated.

I know what you meant.
Just pulling your leg.

Don't get me wrong, we have them here too... in smaller numbers.

I want to say, "No, American's aren't that dumb. They just picked really dumb people." But really, it's pretty believable. I mean I'm sure you could find people like that everywhere, but it's probably much easier to find here.

o'connor 08.05.2008 05:36 AM

fuck that... notice he didn't show all the people who got answers right. and he probably asked these questions in the fucking bible belt, everybody knows their dumb. douche.

Kloriel 08.05.2008 08:27 AM

I answered Uganda before I thought of United States of America. :(

✌➬ 08.05.2008 12:27 PM

Yugoslavia.

Cantankerous 08.05.2008 12:43 PM

that dude seriously did not know how many sides a triangle has.

jesus fuck. i can answer every one of these questions correctly! it's not that fucking hard!


why am i not surprised?

DeadDiscoDildo 08.05.2008 01:15 PM

Haha, the only one I didn't know was the coallition of the willing.

God damn, this is why I wish I didn't live in America.

I think the Star Wars question, the Country that starts with a U, and the Kentucky Fried Chicken one just seriously depressed the fuck out of me.

acousticrock87 08.05.2008 02:27 PM

I wouldn't have gotten the Coalition of the Willing thing, either. I also don't know who Kofi Annan is, nor do I know how dumb I am for not knowing. But he's obviously not a drink.

I've never liked these "stupid tests" that Jay Leno popularized a while back. People get really excited when they see this (they call it "depressed" but I honestly think it makes people proud of themselves) and it makes everyone's egos inflate. Even people that don't know where Iran is located would say, "Well I know how many sides a triangle has, at least." I've said some really stupid shit when I've been put on the spot like that (in political discussions). I honestly don't think that represents someone's intelligence.

That being said, Geography does need to be drilled into the heads of these little brain dead fucks that are running around. But videos like this make it really difficult to travel in Europe.

Yeah, that is very true. I bet they warm them up with easy questions (like the triangle thing) to get the people confident, so that they will answer the harder questions confidently. It is really unfair. No doubt there are stupid people here, but they take out all the people who get the questions right.

As for geography, I am head and sholders better than the people in that video, but I actually want to be better. I am planning on buying a big map of the world and hanging it in my barren-walled room.

Cantankerous 08.05.2008 08:19 PM

i am so embarrassed to be american because of stupid motherfuckers like in this video.

exactly. I love how American TV gets recycled into NEW and INTERESTING content.

would you really want to watch Mr. Funnyman's Super Funny Show if he played the other 10 hours of footage that were edited for LULZ?

OMG STOOPID AMERIKKKANS ARE SO STOOPIDIO, NO?? utoobs plz.


what *I* find funny is the fact that Mr. Funnyman had to be subtitled into EngRish.
