Rome is in England
WWII and the Nazis have no relation
or WWII took place in 1969
there are 52 states in the USA
the USSR stands for United States Special Reserve
facism is a lingo for clothing
stalin was a member of the beatles
mussolini is a dictator in Iran
9/11 never happend (that got me angry)
Noah parted the red sea
woodrow wilson is a famous 1920's baseball player
the great depression happend in "crowded streets in london"
Pearl Harbor was attacked by the british RAF (are you fucking jokin?!)
malcom x was a president...........and how the fuck do you confuse that?!!!!!!!1
sorry for spelling i was a bit pissed about these, but heres a fucked up thought....
when these kids are 18 they will be deciding who runs our government... already they criticize bush even tho they never voted, and its weird how alot of people were for the war because we had thousands die on home soil, and now the fucking dullminded unoriginal plagerizing shitbag student body leaves him out to dry. all they do is take some news they hear and talk like its their ideas.
drives me nuts, i feel totse is a grouping of smart people, the only ones left....sadly

Re: our generation is fvckd!
a multiple choice survey i'm guessing. Well ya, most likely kids bullshited on purpose. Or your school is failing miserably in its education policy. If you believe things like these you should FAIL the classes. Not lower the passing grades so dumbfucks can get through.

Re: our generation is fvckd!
Maybe some of them were kidding. The sad fact is, many of those people really are that dumb. An example would be this one girl I know. She's white, but everything else about her is black. The music, clothing, attitude, and relations with only black guys. When we were writing essays that where random topics, she had one about Martin Luther King's "I have a dream speech" and what it meant. An easy enough topic for most people, since many are educated enough to know the movement behind it. This girl knows alot about popular black culture and entertainment, but she said the dumbest fucking thing I ever head.
"...So, about his speech. Was it a dream he had while he was asleep or did he think of it, or something?"
I couldn't believe I was in that class with her. Jeez

Re: our generation is fvckd!
I'm 99% sure that you are an angsty kidiot. I can tell from your demeanor, the content of the post and your hilarious remark that 'totse is the last enclave of the smart people'.
Aside from the fact that those kids were most likely bullshitting, knowledge of facts does not equal intelligence.

Re: our generation is fvckd!
its amazing i know. i have this one kid in my class who i swear just repeats the news paper all over in the classroom and says its his thoughts, its a sad thing when people cant think for themselves. and the one time he thinks for himself i almost went over to him and slit his fucking throat, his exact words il remember, "you see, i think that the soldiers are idiots for being in iraq, they are over there to fight Bush's war..." i told him that he was a unpatriotic fuck who shouldnt trash the troops that defend his freedoms even though he wont support them, and he had the nerve to say(along the lines of) "well this country is corrupt and our freedoms werent threatend." and thank god for someone else in the room who rememberd 9/11, last time i checked they killed american citizens, yeaa, we were safe all along.
basically the point im trying to make with that short story is im making it a mission of mine, to silence as much of americas idiocy and shit stirring talks as i can. also the jackasses that repeat things they hear on the news, havent we realized yet. to the news, MURDER = MONEY. they love it! Virginia Tech (RIP) they show that scumbags video on tv because it stirs the basic instincts of people, anger and curiosity (among others) its just to get money and ratings. nothing about how good of lives the victims lived, and thankfully for those parents. they kept their respect, when the video was shown almost all of the interviews with the victims parents were canceled....by the parents.
there has to be a way to smarten these kids up a bit, even if its only a little bit.
any ideas?

My first highschool was full of smart people. One of the tops in the region, all the higher electives being taken in math and sciences etc.
My second school was far lower. With all the dumb classes being filled. Like math essentials, and earth science filled. There was a far better trades section at that one though, with alot of highly skilled welders, mchanics, electricians and woodworkers though. I hear there test scores are increasing now aswell.

okay first of all, your on totse, the site where i said had smart people and you laughed, congrats. ok so im an angsty kidiot(sarcastic) does that change the fact that these kids are retarded? you can call me stupid all you want, but it doesnt change the fact that "I" didnt write those answers, im not the one who thought that woodrow wilson was a 1920's baseball player and im not the one who thought 9/11 never happend. as for the kids bullshitting, i think that they gave an honest effort on their answers. do i know for a fact? no. but do you?

Re: our generation is fvckd!
In 2004, Jon Martin Sundet of the University of Oslo and colleagues published an article documenting scores on intelligence tests given to Norwegian conscripts between the 1950s and 2002, showing that the increase in scores of general intelligence stopped after the mid-1990s and in numerical reasoning subtests, declined.
u should read the results first before you actually post it up here.
in 2002 bush signs no child left behind, test scores increase....But "Critics have argued that the overwhelming focus on standardized testing as the means of assessment encourages "teaching to the test". That is, teachers are encouraged to teach a narrow subset of skills that will increase test performance rather than focus on deeper understanding which can more readily be transferred to similar problems."

Re: our generation is fvckd!
I as an american youth feel the same way that people of our generation are just fucking stupid, however, about the current war, the operations in Afganistan were justified by an infringement on American freedoms, Iraq is a whole other monster...
Overall, because of a shifting trend in the values of my generation, as the title states, WE ARE FUCKED!!!!!!
