I remember watching some lame-ass reality show a year or two ago. I think it was called "American Girl" or something like that. Basically a beauty pageant type of affair modeled on a reality show-type format.
Of course the procession of bimbos rolled out well for the look nice and display some kind of musical talent part; but the absolute funniest part was on the *intellectual* side of the competition. I laughed myself sick.
During a series of interviews they were asked a similar question: What country shares the longest border with the United States.
The answers from the contestants included such gems as:
Europe (yup that's a *country* alright)
Spain (only an Ocean away)
Mexico (yup it shares a border, but the largest!!)
And one really intelligent one asked what a border was.
I wonder why they broadcast that. It certainly gave the impression that they were completely stupid.
In case some here don't know the answer...it's Canada. Not too hard to figure out.

It's a new breakfast cereal. Fortified with your daily allotment of vitamins and minerals. Some complain that it tastes a bit like tree bark, but after a spell you don't mind it at all.:lol::lol:

That is a better quiz. I remember seeing something similar a couple of years ago and you had to drop the countries onto the map which was fine with Germany and the like and just about impossible with San Marino or Lichtenstein. I got 136 out 138 on Europe mucked up my Montenegro and Bosnia and had a premature click heading up Italy to Switzerland :( the shame! That doesn't usually happen ....honest.
Where is fst on the geography?
