Geography
In an effort to prove my readers are less retarded than the population at large, I offer this. It turns out that 60% of young Americans can’t find Iraq on a map, and 75% can’t find Israel. Since I was digested and farted out of the same public school system as they, I thought I would try it myself. How many countries can you name off this map?
I got almost all of them. A helpful tip is to look at the little labels that name which country is which. I missed Kuwait because the print’s really small.
As I type this, I have been alerted by a friend that the map the youngsters were using was unmarked… but in all the years I’ve been buying maps I’ve never, ever come across an unmarked one, even at a garage sale. I say if some smartass comes up to you with a map that he spent several hours marking out the country labels on, and asks you to fill them back in for him, politely take the map and say, “sure!” Then roll it up real tight, bend the guy over and shove the whole thing into his ass.
