People with good memory or the ability to remember things through repetitive teaching can feign being intelligent easily...but only in that box. Out of the box and they fall apart. I knew people who could read a question on a test verbatim and know the answer but if you presented it a different way they would be stumped.

This is an act. Some people enjoy cute dumb girls, and some smarter girls have to pretend to be dumb to fit in.

She's already pretty big time in Nashville.

SC or NC folks live in their own small bubble of a world. They have zero need to know what the capitol of Hungary is, therefore they don't. This is a perfect example. Before she got famous she probably never left NC.
Maybe it is like this everywhere. |

I think she also supports a bunch of great causes. I believe she shaved her head to support a friend with cancer. Sang overseas for troops, etc. Maybe she's dumb, maybe she's acting. We've spent 4 pages and almost 100 posts about her.

Maybe it is like this everywhere. | They are actually wrestling with what style of BBQ is best, a truly worthwhile endeavor, and with a difficulty of proving similar to Fermat's last theorem. If you see that your post has been deleted or edited, it is because of the NO POLITICS rule here at TB.
Last reminder here.
