I got nineteen out of twenty-five. Most of those questions where just common sence for us that live in America. Its hard to believe that the average correct is only seven.

I got 20 out of 25 on the power of observation quiz and a normal person gets 7 out of 25, man we must have some really stupid people running around in this world. Come on you would have to be a moron to get anything lower than a 7 on this easy quiz.

I got fifteen. A few of them I knew, a few I guessed and for a lot of them I just went "What? That's American." Of course, I should have been able to tell from the first screen that it was aimed at them - the stats were, of course, from the US. ><
And I agree, that music truly was insufferable.

Hehe, I got 15. I guessed the Campbell one correctly. Yay! Sadly, I failed miserably on the hot dog one...oh well. And yes, I'm Australian. I also agree some of the questions were silly...but meh. I did the test out of boredom and curiousity.

I had my fun time...sorta. Not saying that it was a bad one though, that's just my opinion.

I got 16 of them right, when I was going through it and had 14 right I was wondering what the hell? How come the average is only 7! Some of them are based more on most ie a bag of hotdog buns can come in packs of 6, 8, 12 or anything really. I got most of the AmericaN ones right but I agree its not designed for other countries. (Though I barely know what the kiwi flag looks like )

Dragon Whisker Hi Ether: [12-18-2008] You can get messed up on this hard alcohol in more ways the one, hence the "Hi" of the Ether! - Rocky


Just out of curiosity, if non-Americans could post questions that they felt were US-biased, I think it would go a long way. Us Americans don't see any problems, but I think it'd be interesting to see where the differences come from.

From what I've gathered:
Hot Dogs
Campbell's soup
stop sign

questions are biased. Any others?

Oh, and for the record, the question says "original" Campbell's soup can. Still, in my 21 years on this planet, I've only known one "classic" Campbell's soup can.

Most of the questions are really stupid. i.e. shit nobody cares about, or are US-specific.
Seriously, the reason why few people notice half of those things is because it's useless trivia. Or totally wrong. I've seen the adjustment-dealies on the left and right side of Venetian blinds. I've seen Merry-Go-Rounds go counter-clockwise (with proof too).

Seriously, who looks at a Campbells soup can everyday? Or count the number of matches in a match pack? Or Go all the way down to the lowest FM frequency on their radio? Or care what side the buttons are on a woman's blouse (which seems pretty arbitrary - they could be on either side). Sleepy? Happy? Sneezy? Who gives a shit?

Those things aren't entirely every day things.
Oh, and I got 12, btw.

I only got 14 out of 25 so I'm not feeling so great about myself right now. I don't know how you people can get such high scores on this...but then again, this is coming from a person that doesn't know what a "no smoking" sign looks like...or what venetian blinds are. o.O

Yeah. Half those questions were probably not everyday things since I don't have a since match pack in my house that holds less than 250. I also haven't had Campbell's soup since I was 8. But whatever. They were interesting to see anyway.
