This really just proves my point about American Education.

I want to meet these girls. The evil things I could convince them to do. Then film it. Then post it on xhamster.
Those people are stupid. You trying to use this against American education is stupider. See what I did there
I actually think American schools are superior to English schools. But.... A lot of Americans are too self involved to realise there is more out there than America. People rarely leave their state, let alone the country.
I never said they were stupid. Americans learn fuck all knowledge-wise in school. The majority of the world learns about the rest of the world, and the worlds history. Americans learn America, and what your government wants you to know about the world, which is as little as possible.
I think most of you have it twisted. The truth is, you probably learned about the Titanic sinking from popular culture, not school education. What kind of class would have the Titanic sinking in its curriculum? I don't recall studying the Titanic sinking. I recall getting a hard-on watching Kate Winslet. If anything, it was an off-hand comment by the teacher where he was like "Yeah, so this crazy Serb done shot this Austrian faggot, World War I started soon after, and oh yeah, that movie you saw last weekend with your parents, that happened only a few years before!"
Also, look at the pics of those kids. They're all like 12. WHERE THE FUCK IS THERE ROOM FROM AGE 6 TO AGE 12 WHEN IT COMES TO ALL THE KNOWLEDGE IN THE WORLD TO FIT IN THE FUCKING TITANIC SINKING?
You're saying the sinking of the Titanic is important enough to include in history classes for young kids like that? Really?
shut the fuck up gotti.
SHUT THE FUCK UP.

I don't know man. I remember learning about the Titanic in Mrs. Persuaga's grade 3 class.
Learned about it in grade school, then again in high school.
It's one of the largest (if not the largest) maritime disasters in history. You know how everyone remembers where they were for 9/11? Or how people remember where they were when JFK was assassinated? Well, for those that lived in the early 1900s, this is one of those occasions as well. The news of it sinking was known throughout the world. A tragedy is a tragedy and the aftermath of its sinking brought up many questions about the quality of material used, how to keep it from happening again, etc.

I may be the anomaly, but in third grade we actually had "units" and one of them was the Ocean. Right afterwards, or maybe before, we had a Titanic Unit. We learned about the people on board, how it sank, and what the then-current efforts to explore it were. As soon as the unit was over, the movie came out. So maybe it was a pop-culture unit, but we spent some time on it. A few weeks to a month, at least. I went and saw the movie with my mom and my newborn sister. I had no idea what the fuck was going on, like always with movies of my generation at that age. I had no idea what Jurassic Park was about. I just saw dinosaurs and laughed and clapped like an autistic chimp at the destruction in that movie.
I still haven't seen JP in its entirety at a more mature age. So, like, after I turned ten. It's one of those things I have to do soon. Watch all three.
Fair enough. I agree to an extent. America is very self absorbed.
In England we are different. We are taught that the British Empire was evil, and we must apologise to the rest of the world and make amends for the actions of the rich (none of whom I am related to) about 200 yeas ago.
We were taught in school about the Titanic when I was 10 years old, way before the movie came out. I remember having to dress up as an Italian waiter.
I just want to know what the fuck ya'll learning about in the extra 2 years of school you get, when a large number of you don't even know things that are common knowledge.
