I will start.
How to count change?
Ohm's law? I looked it up. Pretty sure we didn't learn that in high-school. I was in advanced math and science classes through pre-calculus and advanced biology and I don't ever recall learning that. I still donโt know what it is and have gotten by just fine without it. Did you ever attempt to plug a 110 volt appliance into your cigarette lighter? Or go to an internet forum to find out if it would work? Appliance, no. 110V impact wrench on a 400 watt inverter a few times. Didn't have a 12V plug for my laptop so I've plugged that into a 400Watt inverter as well.

Ask a HS kid who Ben Franklin is/was I bet those who are "undocumented pharmacists," bootleggers, and bookies (or who work for one of those) can tell you who Ben was, or at least could ID his picture. Those whose parents work on a cash basis could too.

Shouldnโt anyone that graduated high school be able to figure out something so basic? Iโve read a lot of threads on here, many are from pointy heads that go around correcting othersโ punctuation, jots and tittles but yet they are brought to their knees by self checkout. They know who they are. + We know who they are. LOL

Some things just aren't taught. I took calculus in high school and 3 more semesters in college. At the end, I didn't have a clue as to what it was used for. It was all theory with absolutely zero application. It was years later when I found out what it was used for.

Was at a Phoenix Suns preseason game sitting behind their bench. A note was handed down from the stands to the rookie 1st round pick center from Memphis. He couldn't read it. Handed it to a teammate to be read.
All the way through high school and a few years of college and couldn't read.
