I don't know what the hell a mortgage is.
I have never been to a real "party" (college type).
I have never seen Pulp Fiction or LOTS of other popular movies..
I don't know why people hate George Bush.
I don't know how my car insurance works.

I don't know how to drive a stick shift. I will learn with my next car purchase, as they only make it with a manual gear box.

I have no idea what menopause is. I know its a woman problem that they have when they get older, but thats it.

I don't get how some people can be so stupid (not meaning necessarily people in this thread, but people generally in the world - mainly those who are stupid but in countries which offer a decent education)

I don't know how to lower my child support payment, I've been meaning to for a couple years now, it was part of the agreement.

I don't know where babies come from. <_<

I didn't know what a mortgage was, or how it worked (found out this year, kind of)
I haven't seen Pulp Fiction, or many of the other popular movies.
I don't know how to get a job.
I don't know how to blow my nose, so I just excuse myself to the toilet, so I can do so in the toilet. I guess it's more paranoia that I might have some stuff hanging from the nostrils than anything else.

I'll update this thread (maybe) as I find out more things that I don't know.

I don't know how people don't know half this stuff before they go into college. I'm 18 and a sophomore in college, and I know the answers to most of the questions. I do not have any knowledge on child support payments though, never been in that situation, and I never plan to.

i havent come across one thing i dont know or havent done in this thread, but i dont think it is bragging to say that. most of this is pretty common knowledge.

i dont think i 'get out much', and i am not even 25.

I don't understand how people can be so ignorant of history that they still think communism is a good idea.
