At a middle school basketball game, the contributor overheard this conversation between two young blonde girls:

Girl 1: Hey, the White House is in Washington, right?
Girl 2: Yeah.
Girl 1: Washington D.C., right?
Girl 2: That’s the only Washington there is.
Girl 1: No it’s not!
Girl 2: Yes it is.
Girl 1: No, there’s a Washington state right above … um … Oregon, I think.
Girl 2: No there’s not!
Girl 1: Yes, I am telling you there is.
Girl 2: No, Montana is above Oregon.
Girl 1: No, let me go get my Humanities atlas and see.
[Seven minutes elapse…]
Girl 1: See, right there: Washington state!
Girl 2: No way, let me see!
Girl 1: Right there! HA! Wow, I didn’t know there was a West Virginia!
Girl 2: Of course, you stupid retard!
Girl 1: Well you didn’t know there was a Washington! So there!
Girl 2: Fine we’re even. [Flips pages in atlas.]
Girl 1: Whoa … what’s Bangladesh?
Girl 2: Just shut up!
