I was out last night with my SO and meeting a couple friend of hers... SO is 5 yr younger and so was this couple, and the conversation steered into politics like it often does and the girl had absolutely NO IDEA who Boris Johnson was...

My SO and I are building a house and we were talking about the “build process” and I likened it to Boris defending his refurbishing 10 Downing St. and her eyes went vacant.

Got me thinking, how many people, whom I suspect are early/mid-30’s, are aware of at least the very broadest of strokes when it comes to foreign governments... I mean, the fricking PM at least

ib4: subtle SO and house building brag


You have no idea how dumb this post makes you look. Not sayin'....just sayin'.

I know people who couldn't name our governor and only know who the president is. Never voted and just don't care. Some people try to totally ignore politics.

If I’m out trying to relax and have a beer and some dipshit starts talking about global politics or any politics, I either rudely start playing on my phone or just walk off.

Nobody cares about some fat ugly populist trash from England. And for that matter, nobody cares about England either.

Knowing who a world leader is and knowing about some political scandal which just happened are two totally different issues.
