Americans - you should stop outsourcing your homeworks to India

Recent polls have shown that a fifth of the Americans can’t locate the US on a world map!

“I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because some-a people out there in our nation don’t have that, and I believe our education, like, such as in South Africa and Iraq everywhere, like, such as, and, I believe that they should, our education over here in the US should help the US, or should help South Africa, and should help Iraq, and should help Asian countries so that we’re able to build up our future.”


That was what the Miss Teen USA 2007 (South Carolina) answered when asked, “Recent polls have shown that a fifth of the Americans can’t locate the US on a world map. Why do you think this is?”

See, this is why the Americans should stop outsourcing their school homeworks to India!

  1. Sheeesh she’d be a bloody nightmare!

  2. … and you’re saying people in India are more educated and intelligent?

    Stupid people are everywhere. The world needs a few stupid people. Get over it.

    And believe it or not the girl in that video isn’t stupid.. she was nervous because she was on camera. It happens.

  3. No Jethro, Indians are definitely not. I was just worried if some Americans have been educated (outsourced) by stupid Indians! ;-)

  4. @Tink: I really wish that she kept mum than babbling those crap.

  5. classic! you would think that the grammar/knowledge police will not invoke DAISNAID

  6. @Brajeshwar

    uh uh! Wait a minute? Now you saying Indians are stupid?

    goes to the phone and calls up goons in Bombay and US
    tomorrow’s headlines read, ‘brajeshwar was attacked by americans and indians alike for saying they are stupid’

    You better watch out dude!

    hahahaha.

  7. She’s cute, so she can be stupid :) but yes, the homework outsourcing cut be dangerous for the not-so-cute ones out there :)

  8. Basing one’s opinion on what a beauty pageant contestant says is stupid in itself. 90% of the contestants look great in a bathing suit but probably couldn’t locate the US on a map themselves.

  9. @Arul: LOL

  10. I bet a fifth of Indians have never seen a world map.

  11. Everyone in my office just gathered around and watched this video. We were just discussing this earlier. It’s too bad that this is what people think of when they think of America… Honestly, most of us are smarter than this!

  12. Don’t worry, people don’t really think Americans are stupid. Even if they don’t tell you, most people get their inspiration from America.

    I found the video funny enough to come up with a daring and wicked title. If you watch the status bar while playing the video, you’ll notice that the actual copy of the video is hosted under a folder named “humor”.

  13. @Manish: You’re right, I just realize that most Mumbai people I met never knew of any North East states even being part of India (leave alone the geography of the world).

  14. “Stupid people are everywhere. The world needs a few stupid people. Get over it.”

    You bet. This dumb chick had me laughing in splits for a good few minutes. Bush must be proud of her.

  15. India tech support is the shittiest on the planet!! Just ask Michael Dell and his multi million dollar law suit between him and New York State!! India sucks ass in tech, sorry if the answer is not on google or your fucking manual morons!!!
