What a joke this 'society' has become.
I am not only a Fattie but I am also Stupid, and since I am considered part of this society as well, I am a joke to boot, good to know! But then again, I am not average, only my weight is.
Now, as I knew as soon as I seen the first pin, I knew that they were putting it in the wrong place. This does not represent the average american, or our society at all. For all we know this could have been recorded in a very poverty stricken city. Where the high school dropout rate is astronomical. We do not know that, and unless you recorded it yourself, you can not tell us where it was recorded. So how does one city, or town represent our society, let alone the average american? So I call shananigans! Maybe the Brit should go to his country and ask the same thing, I wonder how they would do in this cocka maimmy poll.

I think we should invade Canadia. I heard that like 80% of their population lives on our Northern border. Seriously ask yourselves, why is that?? Those Canucks are up to something!
Also, if we win the war we can plunder their supplies of maple syrup. That stuff is just plain delicious.

We could send all the internet trolls up there, there could be a special place where they would be forced to watch reruns of "The Nanny"

Wow...all you need to do is follow the text crawl at the bottom of the video to puzzle out the fact that this is a satirical video.
Do you also paste Onion articles as hard news?
Of course it is a comedy bit. Jay Leno also does these skits all of the time too. They're so ridiculous that they are true. All I'm hearing so far are weak excuses for a failed general public. Enjoy the longer version:
Dr. Miller's data reveal some yawning gaps in basic knowledge. American adults in general do not understand what molecules are (other than that they are really small). Fewer than a third can identify DNA as a key to heredity. Only about 10 percent know what radiation is. One adult American in five thinks the Sun revolves around the Earth, an idea science had abandoned by the 17th century.
So most people aren't in touch with society. I can't even see the video, but by your "Who is Tony Blair" LOLing I'm guessing its one of those things where some dude asks random strangers random questions. Sort of like what Ali G would do to politicians...and they look stupid too when asked the type of questions he asks. It all depends on what type of person is on the receiving end of those questions. I could ask you who Ruud van Nistelrooy is and I'll bet you have no idea without referring to Google. But in regard to those people who don't know who Tony Blair is, who gives a shit if they don't know who he is? He means hardly anything to an AVERAGE AMERICAN. He WAS the British Prime Minister, and now he is not, so why should that matter to an American. There's a girl I know who didn't know what planet we lived on til 9th grade, so she claims, and I believe her, because she lacks common sense. But she is bright enough to have graduated from West Chester University and is now teaching elementary school. Not every one is a Jeopardy Champion, and not everyone cares to even try and be one.

since you can't see it it's a british guy asking american questions and definitely agree some people are book smart some people have common sense but very rarely do they have both.

I actually know who he is. In fact, I've taken the tour of Real Madrid's football stadium.

Rad. The point was, if I'm asking a question to someone who has no idea about the subject matter, how is that making them look stupid? I'll go to England and ask a Brit who Sidney Crosby is. I'm sure they'll all have that answer stored and ready.
