Screw history (class)

So, in the train right now... Full of kids, students.
The one closest to me is reading some notes. He probably has an exam today. Apparently it's history.
ARGHBRBRBRBRLLL HIIIISTORYYYYY ZOMG!!!1!eleven
Not only was it the class I hated most, but I came to the conclusion (and still believe) that learning history is totally stupid and should be optional, like a 3rd language is, for those that are actually interested in that crap.
I mean: OK, there are a few basics everyone needs to know, like: don't screw with the jews if you don't want them to get their revenge causing a world economical crisis (j/k)
But c'mon, who the fuck cares that king X started to siege king Y's castle on Z specific day. What the fuck is that knowledge good for? Jesus Fucking Christ, use those damn hours to teach more math, more grammar, other languages or more gym.
In a few years the world will be filled with fat retards who can only write assisted by a word corrector, only do math with a calculator (and won't even know the difference between + and -) but yeah: they'll know why where and when that fucking king sieged that other one 700y ago. Or what would be the modern version: they'll know why where and when Angelina broke up with Brat.
WHO THE FUCK CARES!
