A conversation that happened in my eight grade history class.
Teacher: "Does anyone know the capitol of Paris?"
Dumb kid: "Ooh, I know! Idaho!"

I can almost guarantee that they were joking. Nobody is that dumb.

True convo in A.P. Geography:
Blonde 1: What's a continent?
Blonde 2: Um... IDK??
Blond 1: LOL, We should NOT be in this class.
The sad part is that they were serious and this was a private conversation.

Or they think that Africa is a country in Asia. Or that Genovia and New Avalon are real countries. Some people are so stupid. She can't even spell 'bus' (buss)

Someone in my class was appalled when she discovered Asia was not inside of the United States. In fact, she thought everything except for Canada was inside of the United States.

This reminds me in 5th grade when a kid seriously asked our science teacher if brown cows give you chocolate milk. The pathetic thing is he was completely seriously. Thank goodness as we got older they had the honors classes....

You sound extreeemely pretentious.
by Anonymous13 years ago
Yeah but it was for the betterment of the students. Some kids needed help, and there's nothing wrong with that. Having separate classes allowed them to get the attention they needed. And other kids were bored with the slow pase at which the class was moving, so the benefited from faster moving classes. In retrospect that did sound very bitchy, so I apologize.

HOLY CRAP a 10 year old makes a simple mistake! Stop the presses!

Yeah if it was one time that is one case, two it's another. But the kid kept saying stuff like this on a daily bases.

I knew a girl in eighth grade who thought it was a state in the US.
"Sometimes this continent is only called "Australia", and a few people call it Australasia (the latter term can be confusing because some people use it to mean all of Asia and the Pacific Ocean Islands)"
From the site you linked...

I can call a square a circle, but that doesn't mean it is one.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_(continent)
Fact still is, if someone lists the continents and says "Australia" it is still acceptable and correct.
by Anonymous13 years ago
ugh, use of wikipedia...I'll ignore that part.
But ya, you're right, but that's only because it's popularly known as Australia. I say, that doesn't make it correct. You say, it does.
Two different opinions. I'll stop here, I'll admit ya got me tho :)
by Anonymous13 years ago
Sorry, there were other websites, but wikipedia does compile all the information and use sources, I'd say it's reliable.
I'm happy to agree to disagree too : P

A girl that was in one of my classes thought Scotland was attached to Canada and that Paris was in Quebec.
