You could have asked random John Doe in 1950 who Gandhi was and you probably would have gotten a similar answer.

My sister in law who is on a full ride academic scholarship thought Charlotte was in Alabama. Just shows you how the school system is failing miserably.


Common sense is not always included in being smart.

I like to tell the story of how my ex gf didnt know what the Alamo was.

So instead of taking the opportunity to share your vast knowledge of all things Gandhi, you chose to mock her ignorance and the ignorance of her entire generation.

Way to take advantage of a teachable moment grandpa.

He looked at the jar, looked at us, then picked up his phone and started typing - presumably googling 'instant coffee' or texting his mom 'how 2 make instant coffee? '


He was probably coming to the OT for advice.

My wife will walk through the den, ask what I'm watching, and kinda roll her eyes when I say something about "WWII documentary" or something like that. I'll tell her she's welcome to have a seat and watch it with me. I let her know that I won't tell her who wins/spoil it for her.
