    I am mortally embarassed for all Americans

    This is worth watching. I've never doubted the widespread stupidity of people in general and of course, this guy focused on the weakest of the species...but GODDAMN people!??!?

    Some of these questions are easy enough for a 3rd grader and "average" Americans just fucked 'em up one after the other. I've heard more intelligent responses on Jerry Springer.

                  Even although they would edit the 'smart' ones out, the dumbness of some people still leaves no excuse

                  "what is the currency of the United Kingdom ?

                  "Queen Elizabeth money"
                  "how many sides does a triangle have?"

                  "there's no sides"

                  And this is from adults...

                    Uh huh. Now how about showing all the people that got those questions right? It's amazing what a little EDITING can do eh?

                      Why ? Do you think they should be applauded for getting questions a 2 year old would answer correctly right ??

                        I think the point is that they probably had to sift through hours of footage to create that one piece....the people that got those right probably far outweighs the people that got them wrong

                          I should damn hope so...

                          It still doesn't defend the idiots who are thick as shit though. Like i say, a 2 year old would know the answers to those questions. So why try and defend them ?

                              There's dumbshits all over the planet.
                              Stupidity isn't defined by borders - is inherent in the species.
                              Your post count means nothing.

                                        OK.. It's a comedy show and designed to have people laughing at the stupidity of others and sure does not represent an "average".

                                        But... it's still frightening if you assume the filming to final cut ratio was 10:1 - that suggest around 10&#37; silly replies, but prob more likely to be around 20:1 and with a 5% ratio of idiots - tho questionable that anyone would spend time on a 20:1 ratio - so who knows?

                                        But.. suppose 5% is prob in line that reflected on GFY

                                            I would say roughly 60% of Americans are idiots. You can find them outside of payday advance stores, walmart, in all of the ghettos, at nascar races & driving domestic made pick up trucks.

                                                Add bus stations (used here), in front of the white house (used here too) and in times square (also used here).

                                                  How about extending a little bit more hope for the human race than 60% idiot rate pr0?

                                                  I think I prefer living in a delusional bubble and having some faith left in the human species

                                                      You have to remember why they are showing you this- for entertainment.
                                                      How much fun would it be to see people get all the answers correct?
                                                      So of course they show you the dumbest of the dumb.

                                                        Agree, stupid people all over the world. BUT the USA education system is all fucked up, too many dumbasses when we have the ability for far better education. Especially in So Cal, so many failing students it's nuts.

                                                            No doubt...in fact, this makes me want to strap on a suit, grab a camera and head to a few foreign countries to put something like this together. Imagine the responses to these questions in the UK, Australia, Ireland and Scotland. Shit, 15 minutes in front of an Irish pub on a Saturday night would yield some priceless footage. With a good wig, a little make up and a convincing security team, I bet I could get 20 people to buy that I'm George W. The mis-labeled map was a useful tool, I bet I could have them pinning "nuke 'em" pins on China and the Hawaiian islands.

                                                            But I acknowledged in my opening post that they chose the weakest of the species and represented these people as "average" Americans. The damnable hell of it is that natural selection hasn't kicked in yet to clean out the shallow end of the gene pool. We can just hope the combination of the impending economic crash, global warming, alien abductions and un-educated use of firearms combine to kill of enough of these people to raise the collective IQ a bit.

I hazard a guess one could stand on any streetcorner of any city anywhere and stop passersby randomly and you would come up with a certain &#37; of them being utterly clueless.


                                                                                    Strangely enough though, people from so many countries around the world come to or are sent to the USA to attend their colleges and universities every year. Interesting that the country most laughed at and ridiculed for "stupidity" is also one of the most popular destinations for those seeking higher learning.

I see them do segments on Jay Leno were they ask people on the street questions. No one knew what the name of the galaxy we live in is and they could not name the vice president. Those are basic questions everyone in the US should know.
