   15/25 and I still don’t understand the Venetian Blinds question.

7. Seventeen.

8. 18/25

9. 14

10. I got 18

11. 22

12. I fixed the link. Sorry

13. 20 here. Interesting quiz…

14. 17 out of 25…..not bad for a non USA person

15. 23, been too long since I looked at a soup can or a radio dial.

16. I got 21, I missed the soup can one too.

17. *Sob*, I’m a complete failure. I’m not even telling how badly I did.

18. I got 20/25… but I did get the soup can one. 🙂

19. 21/25.

20. 18/25. There were a few US ones that I didn’t know.

21. I got 18. I also have Venetian blinds where on one set the string is on the right and on the other the string is on the left.

    I also do not think the merry-go-round question’s answer is correct.

22. 18/25

    The Venetian Blind question refers to the wand that you twirl to tilt the blinds, not the cord… that said, I know people who have a combination twist/pull system.

    I also argue with the merry-go-round because I just took my daughter on one this morning that went clockwise. And, the fan question doesn’t ask about which season it is — we run fans both directions depending on what we’re going for… and some fans alternate spin patterns. I also don’t have daily run-ins with Disney dwarfs, but maybe that’s me

    Interesting test, though.

23. 16/25

24. My blinds have the wand on the right. Period.

25. Supposedly, the difference between a merry-go-round and a carousel is it’s direction of rotation.

26. http://www.snopes.com/science/coriolis.asp

    The direction of the water has to do with the shape of the sink and how level it is. Whoever made this test wasn’t paying attention either, I call shenanigans.

27. I did it.. umm 14/25, neither USA person..although i’m doing it to get residence..

28. 18/25. But some of the questions are either only valid for usa-people, and/or are different elsewhere.

    Still fun.

29. Some of the questions are bogus – how many lug nuts on a standard wheel? There is no ‘standard wheel’ – some popular cars like the Honda civic use 4, the Toyota Tundra has 6. Also, the first ‘whole number’ on an FM dial is a trick question: unless you have one of them new-fangled radios (that can find stations between the frequencies), it’s 87.9 or 88.1. There is no 88.

    21/25 for me.

30. 15 / 25 not bad for an aussie,

31. 19 here, too many U.S. based ones. I think the merry go round question is wrong and although I got the standard wheel nut question it could have just as easilly been 4.
