OT: How intelligent is America?
I don't consider myself to be smartest person in the world, but day in and day out of listening to the stupid things people say I find myself thinking I am smart. I went out last Friday to a bar wearing my Worst State Ever shirt and ONLY ONE PERSON COULD NAME THE STATE ON MY SHIRT!!!!!!! Seriously?!?!?! I live in Pa and Penn State considers Michigan and Ohio State to be their bittter rivals, and they can't even name the state of Ohio. The only person who got it was a girl who graduated from Penn State. This is why America is dumb.
Ohio is to the union what a donut hole is to a donut. Empty, vapid, banal, a whiter shade of pale, nil. But it's not as bad as Indiana.
I live in Dayton, and I'm pretty sure a lot of people here couldn't name the state on that shirt.
How smart is America? Ask me after we spend less time caring where Lebron goes or which celeb does what. Ask me again when our government fears its people and not the other way around.
