...yes?

And you are aware that people usually don't remember a lot of stuff they learn in school? And a lot of people are terrible at geography? Also, I'm just telling what my brother told me about his experience. I didn't say I was surprised or unsurprised by their knowledge.

Yes, we all learned the capital cities of the world in geography class in school. But go outside and ask random people if they know or remember what the capital of Cameroon or Indonesia is. I'm sure A LOT of them won't remember it.

Do you remember everything you've learned in school? Of course you don't.

Before the Internet, I just stared at the TV all day watching cartoons.

Now I stare at my iPad all day watching cartoons.

So not much has changed.
