So the party of science candidate Quid Pro Joe says he's "superstitious". LMAO, what a loser.
POLITICAL THREAD

I did watch the superbowl with my dad's girlfriend and all her family (very progressive, what you think of when you think of rich Californian liberals from San Fran). During the half time performance they were all literally cheering and talking about how empowering the halftime is for women and young girls. I did turn to my dad's girlfriend and said, "I thought we weren't supposed to sexualize women anymore. It's the biggest show of the year and they choose to be half naked and constantly show their crotch to the camera."
She was stumped for a second, then went, "ya I actually think your right".
Thought it was a little funny story. Also worst superbowl experience of my life. Only 2 other people either than my dad and myself knew the rules of football. A ton of, "where is Jimmy G, he's so sexy" and "I would never let my kids play this sport, it teaches people to be violent". Fun crowd.

It should't really surprise you. Economic, civics, and geography literacy in this country are shockingly bad. It's either poorly taught, or not taught at all. For example, when my youngest was a high school senior, it was during the the last presidential election. The civics teacher made it clear she was died in the wool democrat and huge Hillary supporter. After the election she said to the class that there is no reason for the existence of the electoral college system. How can a civics teacher be employed and not understand why we have that system. Even though my son went through a civics class, it was very poorly taught. It's just one example of some of the stupid things she said in class. He said most of class thought she was an idiot and openly argued with her. I tried to give my son the Federalist papers to take in and explain why we have that system, but he wouldn't do it.
There is a KC, MO and a KC, KS. Two separate cities each with the same city name.
If this trivial bullshit is all the libtards can come up with, and it is, they're just showing how pathetic and miserable they are.
The Kansas City Royals play in Missouri also. Don’t want anyone being confused on that one.

I hate the term midwit, but it's so perfect. Midwits love telling the teacher they misspelled a word on the board.
Theres a lib out there somewhere demanding Trump be impeached for #KansasCityGate.
Last post on this issue from me, but I do agree with this. Covefe (or however it was spelled) was one of the moments you described above. I just feel like some are making it out to be like he said “Congrats to the Dallas Cowboys. You’ve represented the state of New Hampshire well today!”
Had he said any other state aside from Kansas or Missouri, it would have been an incredibly bad SMH moment. At this point he was just ignorant of which state the Kansas City Chiefs play football in.
I'm with duke4life on this one - I laugh at anyone's stupidity. I don't discriminate based on political party. Had Obama tweeted this, I'd have laughed at him too but at the end of the day it seems that Americans are simply poorly educated about their own country and this isn't a big deal.
I do think it's weird that people get so caught up in political bullshit that they can't bring themselves to laugh at someone for saying or doing something stupid simply because they happen to agree politically with said someone. People need to lighten the **** up.
I know people who couldn’t find specific states on maps, much less cities. It is sad, but it is what it is.
For me personally, this ranks up there with Cincinnati airport, being in NKY. A lot of people outside of the region do not know this fact, and in reality it does not matter one bit.

Shocked? Really? Of the people you interact with on a daily basis how many of them are idiots? 60, 70%? And you're shocked they don't know geography?
If you folks want to have some fun, go over to Huff Po today. They're losing their minds because they know Bernie can't beat Trump... and making all kinds of silly statements (you have to click on the icon for comments). The trolling by Repubs is priceless.
For the record, I think Bloomberg gets the nomination (he wont win Iowa obviously).

Most of the people I interact with on a daily basis at work are quite smart. C and executive level folks. My friends are the same. I don't like to surround myself with morons.
Rush Limbaugh just said he's been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.
Had the left started cheering yet? Hate to hear that about Rush.
Man, **** cancer. Don't like the guy but wouldn't wish that on anyone. I had a friend who never smoked get diagnosed with advanced lung cancer about three years ago. He died 4 months later.
Give them a day or two. I think it took that long for the celebrations on the right when McCain was dying.
You purportedly live in KY. I refuse to believe when you stop at Speedway for a coffee you're conversing with high level executives.
It's not ignorance, DA. There is an adjoining KC KS that supports Chiefs. I mean if Covington was named Cincinnati would Cin. KY Reds be wrong??
I tuned in for the last half hour and heard that. Hope he makes it past the first week of November.
Haven’t looked up numbers but is KC bigger than St. Louis? Or is this sort of like comparing Cleveland and Cincinnati?
Not to mention their daily prayers to Eight Pound, Six Ounce, Newborn Baby Jesus for Ruth Bader Ginsburger to die.
That's correct, yes. But i don't have any sort of meaningful interaction with that person.
Metro KC is 2.1mm, Metro STL is 2.8mm. I've been to both several times and STL definitely has the bigger "feel" to it.
From Wiki;
St. Louis (/seɪnt ˈluːɪs/)[10][11][12] is an independent city[13] in Missouri. It is the second-largest city in Missouri behind Kansas City.[14]
KC KS about 1/2 size of MO one. Never know you move between them as it's just a line in the dirt. Streets continue as if all one. Worked in KC KS for several days a few times.
