To this questions we got many anwsers ranging from the name of the prime minister of Quebec

[/ QUOTE ]

lol. last i checked quebec didn't have a prime minister.

[/ QUOTE ]

I wouldn't call that lol-worthy.

From Wikipedia:

"The Premier of Quebec (in French Premier ministre du Québec, sometimes literally translated as Prime Minister of Quebec) is the first minister for the Canadian province of Quebec."

From answers.com:

"The premier, sometimes called the prime minister, acts as Quebec's head of government"

These are not very good examples. I didn't know (1) until I read the thread in question. And there wouldn't really be any reason to know (2) unless you went to a school that had RA's (they were called "proctors" where I went to school).

I think I know all the others in this thread, except I have no idea what a "white sale" is.

I have no idea what either "rabbit vibes" or "white sales" are.

Also, if asked to name the continents, I would surely include "Australia." Australia the nation would be included in this continent, as well as New Zealand and other islands. While "Oceana" may also be a perfectly acceptable name, I think it was made clear above that the dude who argued with his girlfriend is dumb.

How to build a fire without lighter fluid or gas.


[/ QUOTE ]

I'd be shocked if more the half of oot knows how to start a decent fire, and it is ridiculous that people don't know how to do this.

[/ QUOTE ]

Do you mean from scratch using no matches/lighter, as in flint and tinder?

[/ QUOTE ]

Matches/Lighter would be allowed but it really should be without them as well.

BTW, you would need more than just flint and tinder.

Starting a fire, and keeping it going, is such a basic survival skill that it is just sad everyone doesn't know how to do this.

[/ QUOTE ]

For most people this is far down on the list of useful things to know.

Then again I believe everyone should know how to shoot a riflw too

[/ QUOTE ]

Why should i want to know this? It would be much better if far less knew how to shoot a rifle.

Think what you want. You are more than entitled to your opinion. Me, I like to be able to take care of harvesting my own steaks, chops and burgers.

That at a two-way stop (where cross traffic doesn't stop) it doesn't matter who arrived first; If you're turning left you yield to the person going straight or making a right.
