Probably because geography is no longer about where somewhere is on a map and hasn't been for over 30 years that I know of.
Gone have the days of teaching things that are potentially of some use in later life. The geography of today is all about regional climates, politics, land, farming, crop rotation etc. A question on my geography GCSE was describe a typical hill sheep farm. My answer, 'a typical hill sheep farm is located on a hill, surprisingly enough'.
I failed!
Do you define "potentially useful in later life" to mean will possibly get you a point on Tipping Point?

Sheep??
 
There was a university student on tipping point this week who was studying Geography and was in her final year. When asked which sea did the RHINE empty into - Baltic, North Sea or Mediterranean - she replied “I have never heard of the RHINE so this will be a guess”.

I find myself shouting at the TV at the basic lack of general knowledge by people who are prepared to make themselves look complete idiots in front of the whole nation.

I like watching them as it makes me feel intelligent, I steer clear of university challenge and pop master makes me look thick ;)
 
To be fair any team we play and beat always played badly, or had their worst game of the season according to the commentators.
They are bound to have their worst game of the season when they concede all 4 goals as a result of defensive errors.
'The first two defenders ***** dribbled past should have tackled him, the third defender was too far away, poor positioning and the fourth and fifth defenders put in poor challenges, when **** took it round the goalkeeper for the second time the others should really have gone and stood on the line to block the shot. Yes terrible defending for all 4 goals'
 
Michael Owen modelling a denim brand.
I'm thinking of a different word to describe him other than legend
