Maybe it isn't all about your profession. Maybe you should try to know some of the basics taught in high school in order to be a good citizen. Not to say that the high school I went to wasn't a waste of time, but that doesn't mean high school has to be a waste of time.
People are good at being smug, and thinking they know everything. The best way to realize that there's actually some depth to a topic is to study it a bit. Since (from reading other comments here) none of us would have wanted to learn some of these topics, maybe we'd all still think that those other topics are all a stupid waste of time, and people who do them are also useless.
