19/20 ..
Missed:

"Which country never prohibited the sale of Alcohol?"
America
Iraq
Kuwait

I picked Kuwait but it was Iraq

Although I'd be lying if I said I didn't guess at two of them...

1) "Where did the beatles first play?"
I think I answered the Cavern, but it was purely a guess.

And

2) What % of Americans are reportedly obese?
I picked the greatest %, since it's an anti-American quiz.

Fuck them and that quiz.

[Trev]

20/20:

You are clearly an intellectual giant. Or possibly you found a way to cheat. Either way, congratulations.


OR:

The questions are real easy :P

[Joe Sixpack]

Not all Americans are stupid, just most of them.

Please post the list of famous Aussie inventors/scientists/nobel prize winners/etc. then we can compare it to the American 3rd or 4th string famous inventors list and see which is more impressive. Face it, our scrubs are better than your best.

You might not need to be intelligent to be rich, but you definitely have to be stupid to be poor in this day and age.

Let's compare the net worth of Australians and the Americans.

Considering your country has a population fifteen times large than Australia's, that would be a pointless exercise.

You could do it on a per capita basis but that would be just as meaningless without taking cost of living into account.

Forget it Buffy and go back to fucking the whores on your website.

This has gotta be hurting your shrunken little brain.

Make, or more likely find, a list of Australians who have contributed something of value to the sciences or who have developed monumental inventions -- you know, like the lightbulb or refridgeration or the computer or the airplane or whatever.

All of your great scientists came from Europe, dipshit.

hmm.. all questions regarding war, world leaders, measurements I got correct.. authors, religion, music, and language.. I left something to be desired..

Music question was prior to my birth ..
Religion has limited appeal..
Languages.. I only speak one.
Authors I not a big reader of the classics.

War - I played alot of Axis & Allies growing up.
World Leaders - I pay attention to such things.
Measurements - Maybe luck maybe a class I payed attention in.

America's worst students drop out of school and work at McDonald's. Their worst students graduate from school before they work at McDonald's.

American's best students work for defense contractors. Their best students come to America for grad school.

[spazlabz]

Makes me feel kinda proud :)

For an American, your knowledge of the world and its history is surprisingly good. About the same as the average school-age person in any other country. If you are at school, congratulations. If you are an adult, try harder. Read books, visit other countries, and watch less television. Learn to understand the world better and you could become an ambassador for your country, demonstrating that Americans are not all stupid.


spaz

[sperbonzo]

You have an impressive understanding of the world for an American. It is likely that you feel intellectually isolated in your home country, and often have to hide your opinions from others. Deep down, you realise that your country is the single biggest threat to world peace in modern times, but you have not yet summoned up the courage to emigrate.[QUOTE]


This bullshit quiz was obviously written by either...

2. Brainless sheep who only research the side of the issue that they already agree with and refuse to look at anything that they don't.

Either way.......they can F@&*k off.

Yeah, that and the definition of "television". Airplane is pretty disputed too. One most Americans would miss for sure is the invention of the automobile.

It's when you get to a point in your life that you realise how insignificant you really are and how dangerous the world is.

It's when you've tried to help yourself, because you believe that you no longer need help from other people. It's not fun.

It's when you realise that you have made one BIG mistake, and they won't let you get to sleep at night, which is the MOST frightening thing I have ever encountered. Hell on Earth... haunted over and over, with no escape... you can't run away from this. I've had enough of this conflict. Maybe I should start throwing things around the room?

It's when 1228 posts makes me a criminal in my own house and the threat that 1229 will bring disconnection from the net, total. I am having a bad fuckin' day here and there's nothing I can do about anything.

It's got nothing to do with Greenguy & Jim, at all.

I appreciate your comment, and it just proves to me that I am right. I am just kidding myself.
