This is soooo sad. You fools! Any crazy gypsy here can give you a better answer on any of these questions.

[Jace]

ok, you are normally so annoying

but that was damn funny

[pocketkangaroo]

You can go through any country and ask a ton of people questions and many will make asses of themselves. So they picked some idiots and asked them questions? Does this really mean that they represent every single US resident?

Jay Leno does this every week too.

[fuhkinglou]

Where the hell are these people? So sad....

It's why I never really cared for sketches like that. If you ask enough people, you'll eventually hear the answer you're looking for.

I think in chshkt's world, the United States is really just a fabrication the New World Order concocted and filled with alien robots from another dimension. These alien robots like to fake moon landings, blow up their own financial buildings, and supporting the Illuminati.

Do those "crazy gypsies" that are so smart also fall for MLM schemes like you do?

[cardinalvices]

Thats pretty insulting.. But Borat is pretty insulting too.

[12clicks]

I think the fact that his country *has* gypsies is pretty funny

[charls]

stupid are those that give stupid answers knowing that they actually have no idea what they say, and that happens everywhere around the globe. There are those though that simply say "i dont know", and you cant really call them stupid, just ignorant, which is not really a bad thing.

for example, i'd rather put my life in the hands of a doctor that knows jack about the country he's living, than in the hands of a doctor that spends half a day learning geography and doesnt give himself the time to learn all there is about medicine.

same goes with lawyers, architects, etc
i believe that for one to be a guru in what he does, he has to ignore some other things, this process it's called specialization, and it's a SMART one.

[madawgz]

somethings wrong with that pages layout...

[hzoltan]

I do believe that only stupid ppl were cut into this, but it was strange, that I saw every kind of ppl, from rich to poor, from young to old. That could show that the average american people is a dumbass
But I know, that's not true. They're just the majority
Almost everyone I met here (americans) are absolutely normal, so no offense

[Rhesus]

Well there's a hard core of truth in the whole thing. I can imagine that when you're living in, say, nabraska or something, and all your neighbours are american, all you see on tv and all you hear on the radio is american, and you never hear anything else than american english, you get a very unilateral view of the world, a view that also is totally US-centred. Information that may sound relevant to the rest of the world is irrelevant to most americans, and may thus just be forgot.

A nation that doesn't know its place in the world and that is grossly unable to adapt to its environment is a lost case imo.

12 clicks, you could have been a good lawyer.

Instead of giving the direct answer to questions on hand, you present non sequittors which have nothing to do with the questions presented.

Here is a direct question:
how many questions in the video would you fail personally?

Don't be shy.

[King Adam]

It truly is a dman shame how stupid our fellow countrymen and women are.

The truly sad part is that you're so stupid you don't realize you're watching a piece of film edited together to make Americans look stupid.

1- Americans are stupid because they re-elected Bush.

2- Americans are stupid because they are ignorant and think they are alone in the world, as we can see in this video.

here's what I mean by crazy gypsy:

I'll happily answer your question as soon as you quote the "question presented" that I "presented a non sequittor" to

Na.. believe me - don't blame the education system alone

Just met a US couple at the weekend (nice folks... but) - he was a surgeon, his wife a lecturer - and the dialog was something out of this planet. It's still a talking point among us today - can't believe educated/qualified people have so little clue.

Never ask about geography. It's just not popular in the US. Also never ask where the Caribbean is, or ask for something to be sent there - they'll send it to the Indian Ocean. Tell em Namibia is an up and coming world power and they will attempt to have an intelligent discussion over it - they have no idea where it is. (This can be fun at times You can talk shit to the dumb and tax their braincells and wait for the stupid responses - but keep a straight face *lol*)

Sure.. not all people are dumb, but there is a high level of total unawareness, and the rate you will get stupid comments is high. Others are 100% sensible and have a good command of reality - they'd laugh their heads off reading the stupidity on GFY.

But hey... even the dumb can be very nice people and genuinely open and willing to help others - it's hard to knock that

[12clicks]

imagine the money the surgeon lost by not knowing the geography version of trivial pursuit.

[interracialtoons]

I recognized one of the guys giving stupid answers.
His name is **edit** from Venice Beach and he has been a homeless, mentally ill alcoholic from at least 12 years.

But for the rest of the people, just stupid for no reason.

the best was when i was talking to a distant relative from North Carolina. Somehow, the topic of rainforests come up, and he has the confused look on his face.. "There's rainforests in Canada?" I looked at him for awhile, and replied "there is rainforests in the US"..

If "imaginings" over his money is your fetish - hey, carry on and get off on it.

[SmokeyTheBear]

funny i suppose i guess its funnier when its an american doing the jokes not some aussie who thinks he is proving some point..

as pointed out you could interview people anywhere and cherry pick the idiots out, doesnt really say much.. funny though.. cant believe some of the answers.. the blonde girls always make me laugh

How many sides does a triangle have ?

blonde - .. "none . no wait . one ? "

lol

[eZe]

That video is scary as shit. But you know there are stupid people everywhere. Also, you can edit shit and take it all out of context and make it look like pretty much anything is being said.
