But then I am pleased to say so am I as I also didn't know the answer to any of those questions.

This is a normal post Hmm
I score zero out of five on that.

I can have a fair shot at explaining quantitative easing, I know my way around the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act (2008), I have a tolerable understanding of the relative merits of the various schemes that might be tried to limit the effects of climate change, and I can identify the capital of Namibia.

Sadly, though, I clearly don't have a clue when it comes to important stuff.

When someone with a university education doesn't know who won the last series of Celebrity Big Brother, clearly the country is in the shitter.

I agree with you, there is a good chance of her having a 'Judith' going on down there.

EDIT: actually, I can't remember last time I had a proper haircut. It was certainly while I was still at school.

I'm 32 now.


So, yeah. Point proved.

How odd.

I'll post you some if you want, though...

Though, I fished some out from the Fab Cafe's urinals last december though.

I have them mounted and everything.

This is a normal post This just illustrates reverse-intellectual snobbery
Why is it more important to know about classical music than what's in the charts today?

Why is better to know Orwell than Stan Lee?

And vice versa.

I find it best to know stuff that will win you pub quizzes

This is a normal post I agree with poststructuralism aswell
but I dont think thats the point the Sun were trying to make...
 (I helped save b3ta! Jorvic, Mon 16 Mar 2009, 13:53, Reply)
This is a normal post I agree.
University Challenge is merely obscurist, not intelligent, as such.

That being said, that doesn't make Going For Gold inherently better.

To that extent: leave UC as it is, but make the final basically a pub quiz. Similarly, the final round of Masterchef should be running a branch of McDonald's.

I can do the later questions, but I'd bomb out on the £200 one because I wouldn't know who played football last week.

This is a normal post What`s the name of the pub this quiz was set for?
The "fuctifino"?

If I get hideously drunk it will probably turn off the head firewall and be able to answer most of those, only one now : dev patel.

Never been in a pub quiz that LCD ever, and I`ve been in a few.

This is a normal post But everyone knows students fail on common sense
and win on text book examples that rarely happen in the real world.

And being classed as the most intelligent person anywhere is a complete load of bollocks too. Intelligence could merely be classed as memory as that's all she has, she hasn't gone and pioneered something on her own, she has merely learnt from example, yeah very clever!


Edit: Awaits flaming from angry, baked bean eating, debt laden students.
