    I like to joke thats where the teachers who couldn't get jobs over here end up, but I think thats half based in fact :joy:

    honestly yes, the schools were a bit of a joke that I went to. The highschool I graduated from had 10 people including me, and they shut it down so kids over there have to go to online school now.

    Nah, he didn't really go to school in the states until he was a junior. Mostly grew up in Europe.

    Seriously, though, my dad thinks the moon landing was faked because there's no way they could've calculated what angle to shoot the rocket or what day to shoot it on so that it actually would land on the moon. Math is an esoteric and unfathomable science, it doesn't exist because it's too hard for people in the 50s~60s to comprehend.

    When I was in Massachusetts people asked where my accent and I was from. I told them Montana and on more than one occasion they responded to "What state is that in?" o_0 On a road trip through Canada when I told people I was from Montana they lit up and said "Montana is the patron state of blowing shit up! I love Montana!" So yeah, I'm just convinced that clueless people exist everywhere on the globe.

    Yeah, aside from the people it's a great city!

    Then again, strolling around Montreal in a Leafs hat wasn't the best idea.

    People like that frustrate me at a deep and fundamental level.

    Warping reality around them to suit their own beliefs.

    Walking confirmation bias.

    Probably also sent their kids to good schools so they didn't end up using mturk forums.
