My fucking god...

The 23-year-old, who said she had left school without a maths GCSE, said: "On one of my cards it said I had to find temperatures lower than -8. The numbers I uncovered were -6 and -7 so I thought I had won, and so did the woman in the shop. But when she scanned the card the machine said I hadn't.

"I phoned Camelot and they fobbed me off with some story that -6 is higher - not lower - than -8 but I'm not having it.
I mean... I... she....

My fucking god...
 
This would never have happened under the Nazis.

Seriously, when shit like this is happening, not only does the education system need a massive overhaul, but a large section of the population needs to be culled for the good of the genepool.

"I think Camelot are giving people the wrong impression - the card doesn't say to look for a colder or warmer temperature, it says to look for a higher or lower number. Six is a lower number than 8. Imagine how many people have been misled."

Funny... my hometown in USA was Manchester and there was a national IQ test taken on TV once (figures, silly Americans) and our average IQ was the 2nd highest in the nation :lol:
 
Perhaps, but I come from the part of the country which is most vehemently anti-Bush so we're obviously the most intelligent. /real logic.
 
As posh people are born with a silver spoon in their mouthes, I heard that Americans are born with a big mac and fries in theirs, is this true Smantay? :P INFRACT ME BIATCHES

Good idea. Where shall we start? I know...let's start with people with dumb ideas.
