This is why I watch very little commercial television.

Man! I love blondes!
Staged.
part of it is a very sophisticated commentary upon the nature of the nation-state.
I mean, the EU has a common currency, an overarching legislature and bureaucracy and so many other attributes of a state, her confusion is obviously an attempt to get Foxworthy and the audience to think about this simple but profound question – what makes a country?
or, she could be in the running for Miss South Carolina.
take your pick.
Well, I was torn between Hungary and Romania, but yeah,==maybe not staged but they obviously cull the applicants to find those who think its cute to be stupid.
So not only subtle commentary on what it means to be a country, but also on what it takes to be attractive?

Bobbo, what typographical symbol does your “two equals signs” represent?
#5 – What, is your manhood inferior to his double-equals girth?
Sorry, hadn’t owned you recently. Didn’t want you to feel left out.
MM–do you like my punctuation? Its completely subconscious. In that case, maybe indicating a pause while thinking=======but maybe not.
You should try using ==== liberally in your own posts for awhile? Maybe it would allow you time to think too?
I think the only reason Nathan got the answer right is because he hasn’t yet hit puberty. In a few years, he’ll have a tough time even spelling “Hungary” around a woman that pretty.
Call it “the blonde effect.”
>>MM–do you like my punctuation?
Not particularly, at least not in that case. “==” is non-standard, distracting, and you use it in cases where one might expect an em dash or an en dash.
I thought that perhaps, master logician that you are, your double equivalences were your attempt at a low-ascii rendition of “≡”, or some other logic symbol.

Yes, Kelly Pickler (or whatever her name is) was quite the hottie, before she got those rock-hard rubberized fake tits. You just gotta wonder.
“In that case, maybe indicating a pause while thinking=======but maybe not.”
This must be the textual equivalent of a verbalized pause.
Is it possible for someone to be this stupid?
Man, I live in Budapest for 18yrs now, but i know where Washington is.
man that chick is a stone….
It is just that she has no talent when standing up.
I watch almost zero commercial or any t.v……but when I’m home and remember, I love this show. Believe me, it’s not staged. If you want to see a good cross section of America and the generational differences in education, this little show will give it to you.
The kids are regulars and very bright. When they aren’t doing celebrety guests(who are surprisingly bright, except for this woman), they have regular people on and it just floors me to see a high school Principle or teacher who can’t answer the 2nd. and 3rd. grade questions. Or a computor nerd or even lawyers and Doctor’s.
🙂
Huh. How about that. Ya learn somethin’ new everyday. I always thought that Paris was the capital of Hungary.
😉
that bitch was stupid but she had a alabama accent, and probably went to public school before dropping out in the 7th grade to have children by her father – but the best part of that was when foxworthy made a gag about when someone only hears what they want to, its just being a woman.
that much was true.
Alabama? Nah. She’s from North Carolina. My brother lives in NC. The place is full of people like this. Except many of ’em aren’t so smart. Her surgeon may have put the silicon in the wrong cavity.
BTW, Tiki, don’t be stoopid. Paris is a country. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go fix dinner. I’se Hungary.
Mr Mustard, I happen to like “==”, it’s new and refreshing +++ so Bobbo feel free to “==” when the mood hits you.
Oh +++ she sure isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed.
Cheers
Esteban. Are you STOOOOOO-PID? Oh, you’re US American. Now, I understand your comment. This is NOT staged. This is YOU in drag.
“Hungary… what kind of country is that?… I heard about Turkey”
🙂
Love it!
This show is causing some controversy among gameshow nerds. Apparently the kids are all child actors and they explicitly get contestants based on looks. So staged? Not any more than any reality show is staged. But did they just happen to get those people based on chance? Hardly.

It’s Kelly Pickler, the American Idol contestant. She is well known to be faking her “dumb blonde” act.
There’s lots of pretty girls. She talks stupid.
Great Post… lmao. Blond = male / Blonde = female
My God. No wonder the rest of the world laughs at the U.S. That was just as bad as a Jaywalking segment on Leno. How on earth do these people manage to graduate from school, hold jobs, and have lives?
Uncle Ben, that first video had me rolling. I love the old-fashioned lessons on “proper behavior” 😉
#13 Of course genius, everyone knows where Washington is, but do you know where i.e. Harare is?
You probably don’t, because it is as important to you and your country as yesterday’s shit, right?
Now you know why most of americans don’t know – and don’t need to know on a daily basis – about i.e. Budapest
