I do. In my special ed class, sometimes we do schoolwork, like politics, current events, etc. and since I don't know nothing about those things, sometimes I get into trouble with the teacher about it and he said that's something we need to work on next school year.

PS: I guess people in my class still like "perfect people".

Idea Not really?! I always seem to have some (seemingly to me), "common sense" knowledge of every subject/ topic. Wink

I know almost nothing about sports or what is on regular TV, (I like Discovery and History channels mostly).

You actually could learn more about those topics if you watched history channel but it's harder to remember things that you really don't care about, (or watch them in the first place)...but sometimes they make it pretty interesting where the books I read about it in school were really boring. Still, I have no interest in learning anything about sports.

Tell your teacher that "a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing" because a lot of people learn a little about a topic and then think they understand it all...then they take that little knowledge and attack innocent countries like G Bush did in Iraq<---see, now you know something about politics.

I know nothing about what's in the news, sports or politics. I think it's because I devote all my spare time to my special interests so no, you're not alone!

I know nothing.

I just assume things.
All "knowledge" is false though.

I'm not really interested in current events and politics so there for, don't pay any attention to them. I could read about them if I wanted to but I don't want to waste my time.

i generally have at least a basic understanding of anything that's brought up. i'm not up to date on all the new fads, politics, celebrities, etc. but other than that i generally know enough to follow what's being said.

I sorta know the fads. I just wear what's comfortable and what I like. I don't really know what's on TV. I just watch what I like.
I do know a lot about animals and Nintendo. I seem to know a lot about how to do my job.
