Stupid Students

They (the guy and his wife, say mid-forties) thought I was joking at first.

They said they had just come from Buckingham Palace, seen St James' Palace, heard about all the other palaces that London has (Westminster, Lambeth, Kensington etc) and presumed that "Versaille Palace must be around here somewhere!".

"I assure you it isn't".
"Are you sure?"
"Yes".

I felt like saying "Actually, I'm just kidding, its about two miles down that road, hail a cab, it'll be quicker". If I were able to be a fly on the window when the cabbie heard the request, I would have definitely done it.

You should have told them that, if they intended to walk, they should wear water-proof shoes.

I know the capital of Swaziland is Mbabane. I don't even need to look it up, it's in my vast pit of useless knowledge.

Um, that's nothing. Many U.S. students can't find their OWN state on a map.

That's nothing, I can't find my keys!

Get a clapper, then you can find your keys by clapping, and attach the clapper to them so you never lose them again.

I just borrowed an idea from the local gas station and attached my keys to a cinder block.

Personally I believe that excessive education levels in a society can be counter-productive. There are still a lot of jobs that require relatively unskilled labor. If everyone is too educated, who will fill in those jobs?

what do you mean by unskilled? burger flipper? we dont need them, thats what us teenagers are for
