So not only do they suck at swimming, but astronomy as well. Incidentally, I'm American and I've known that the Moon orbits the Earth for as long as I can remember.

Wow, Not only were the subtitles misplaced...but what the hell is up with the 2% of people who think that Mars rotates around the Earth?

I was hurt to read 10% of Americans think le soleil gravite around the Earth or whatever, but hey...53% of that audience. Fifffffty three.

Well, the percentage of americans who think Obama is Jewish recently jumped from 0% to 2%. But anyways, to heck with what the French think. They're brie cheese tastes like a fart anyway. (completely unrelated, but relevant none-the-less.)

Well all it proves is that studio audiences of any nationality are unburdened with and over-abundance of education. Or you can just remember that out of the six or seven billion people on this planet, a much larger proportion than that probably think the Earth was crated in six days (or some variation on that theme), that women were derived from men, that horoscopes actually work, that digital watches and musical ringtones are a great idea and that happiness depends on the movement of little green pieces of paper.

Indeed. There's no way God could have found a builder that would be able to do the job in under a week! It would have taken that long to make all the jam... Posted by Mars Needs Women (Member # 1505) on :

Well whoever it was obviously underbid for the contract, which is probably why they neglected to give this world any figgins.

What actual number question was that? I know he dropped to €1500, but that just means that he was above but below whatever the second safety line was. I mean, if that was a €15,000 question, I need to get on the French version.

I learned my astronomy from Happy Meals toys in the 80's and I know more than that idiot.

You must have been devastated when they downgraded Hamburglar to a dwarf planet a couple years ago.
