I can never tell the models of cars unless I can read it off them. Ever seen that episode of the Simpsons were Lou and Eddie are in pursuit and Lou on the radio says "Suspect is escaping in a blue......car". That's me.
Couple of weeks a go I had a police woman knocking on my door telling me nothings wrong but there's a vauxhall something or other that's blocking the road down the way and if I knew who owned it. I had to confess that I wasn't sure on car models and the wife shouts from the back that its a van.
So what's your shameful gaps in your knowledge?

Since I don’t drink I have no idea what any of the top brand alcohol names are. So when people tell me “I was at a bar and I drank to much _____, or my favorite drink is ______, Iam like “ok, I don’t know what that is or care”

I'm horrible with directions. Like, tell me to go south then east and I'm finished.

That was handy years ago when I was in Portugal and went for an early morning run. Went back to go back to the hotel but took a wrong turn and didn't realise at first, but I noticed the sun was in the wrong place, realised what I done and got back ok.

I still can't really read Roman numerals. And I even grew up in a house where our main clock had them.

So when people tell me “I was at a bar and I drank to much _____, or my favorite drink is ______, Iam like “ok, I don’t know what that is or care” If they’re at a bar and telling how you much they drank, they didn’t drink anything but shit or they’re 20. Once you get into top brands, there’s no sense drinking too much. It ruins the experience.

Driving in a city. To make matters worse, I haven't driven in years so now it's driving in general.

Where have all the cowboys gone? Come here. I’ll show you. Guys wandering about Wal Mart, spurs and all, like they just stepped off the set of Bonanza are the normal, not a freak still living in the 19th century.
