"Flowers are red, green leaves are green

There's no need to see flowers any other way

Than the way they always have been seen."

Can confirm that more education doesn’t always make you smarter. I took an astronomy class as an elective in college for an easy A. I distinctly remember someone in the class not knowing what caused seasons. They thought it was because the Earth was in an elliptical orbit. I pointed out that if that were the case we’d have two summers and winters a year across both hemispheres.

How the hell do you make it to college without knowing about the Earth’s tilt causing seasons? That’s like a “Bill Nye when there were still two genders” level of science.

Not to one up you, overheard this girl's surprised reaction to seeing the moon, during the day. "That's not possible." It's ok, she has a master's degree and focuses on special needs kids as a means to her speech pathologist goals. She must feel right at home.

Lol wtf. How do you get to adulthood without ever seeing the moon out during the day? Used to see it all the time as a little kid walking to the bus stop in the morning.

They won’t be surviving. Useless people starve to death when everything collapses.

Useful idiots. Even in the 11th hour of their life they still can't grasp what happened. That's why they're taken out first. Evidence-written history...

It didn't end well for Winston Smith the Junior party member. He didn't blend in well enough....not by a long shot. They always root out the pretenders and promote the true believers. See you in room 101 Pedes because I won't bend the knee to the Marxists. I'll take my chances with the torturer.

Ignorance is Strength!

I would like to thank the teacher whom I do not remember the name of from middle school.

He would require us to provide non-fiction books as source for our claims in essays.

He made it a point to fail any paper that sites Wikipedia.

Because of him I learned to verify everything.

If you think that’s weird, I was born in ‘89. I find myself lucky to have the teachers I had. On my way out they were pushing common core hard.

My wife went to the same schools I had. The amount of history she does not know is insane.
