Wow. That's crazy. I could understand if we were talking a fairly new country or a remote one not well known but this was sadly funny.

Yep, she's another pretty face!

Another great representation of a woman from the United States...

Although...I have to say...I am guilty of being HORRIBLE at Geography also....but I did know there was Turkey AND Hungry...

It was entertaining!:-6:-6

Maybe more a comment on your education system than her intelligence.

To think that Europe is a country, and not to know that France is a country? How could anyone, anywhere not know that France is a country, even the kid was laughing at her.

Even the show's host is an idiot. Not only for his stupid comments about woman, but it not Hungry as in needing food, it is Hungary as in the country of almost 10 million people and size of Indiana.

It's called being a comedian.

GMC that was really rude! All people aren't as stupid as she is..

That comment was totally uncalled for!

I was actually sticking up for her. Stupidity and ignorance are not one and the same. I know plenty of intelligent people who are also incredibly ignorant about things they are not interested in. We have saying -a' brains and nae common sense-It would be interesting to compare how they were both educated. Kids tend to do what it takes to please the adults around them so if she was given no reason to learn or not encouraged to read you don't acquire the habit. Looking at some of your films and TV programmes you seem to have a school culture where being a nerd or too studious is rather frowned upon being part of the in crowd is all that matter. If vacuous and pretty is what gets you by than that's all you need.

Bet you I could find loads of people in the UK that don't know either-London kids think scotland is a village north of watford hungary is probably what they feel at lunchtime. .

Do you know how a car engine works for instance? If you don't is it because you are not interested and have never had any reason to find out or because you're stupid? IQ tests test that which they are designed to test-if you practice you increase your IQ so someone with a high IQ as determined by tests might just be a sad loner that spends all his time reading and doing tests.

Funny that you say that GMC, my Dad is in the top 3% of Mensa, incrediably smart (no, I know I didn't inherit his brains*sigh*) but he has very little common sense, he'll often say or do something which stops me in my tracks

RedGlitter · Post by **RedGlitter** » Tue Dec 04, 2007 3:39 am

Suzy, I do that too. Well not Mensa but I always scored considerably high on IQ tests and my schools stuck me in the gifted programs yet I have always been one of the most illogical people I know. I am pure emotion, little logic. And common sense? I have none, I'm sure of it. I'm thinking it has to do with that right brain/left brain theory.

Really though this woman was kind of embarrassing.

I thought she was quite funny, but hey thats my weird sense of humour!

I hate to say it but that looked totally scripted to me. Is it off-the-cuff realtime actuality or is it made more exciting beforehand?

Kelly Pickler: Ya gotta love her. She made enough money off of her intelligence to purchase a breast enhancement and now she continues to make money off of all of her ASS etts, I don't see nothing wrong with a person using whatever they can to make a living. GO KELLY!!!:D
