Heh nossy Send a noteboard - 09/07/2011 04:52:27 AM
Generally all intelligent people, no matter where they are from, can be expected to know all or most of those answers. Obviously, I'm not talking about people who go to second-, third- or below-third-rate colleges in America (or really, who go to shitty colleges anywhere, though we have an abundance here in America). The point is that only the rugby question was the sort where one would have to be from a certain place to be reasonably expected to know it.

Or, one could be from the Midwest, and know it because it's not that obscure.:P And not necessarily think that her friends are generally unintelligent or alma mater second rate.

And the US does NOT have "pubs" per se. We have bars that sometimes call themselves pubs because they use the pub theme.

Technicality. Regardless, I've seen rugby here. And not that infrequently.

He also misspelled Walesa. *NM* Tom - 08/07/2011 03:14:10 PM 348 Views
He misspelled everything, hence the entire conversation. *NM* nossy - 08/07/2011 03:19:11 PM 335 Views
I missed Question 4. I think that's hardly general knowledge. Tom - 08/07/2011 03:13:22 PM 640 Views
I knew it. nossy - 08/07/2011 03:18:20 PM 664 Views

Yes, but the way certain Kiwis around here gush over them we should all know the All Blacks. Joel - 08/07/2011 04:56:21 PM 735 Views
Or it's 94 of the world's countries. Rebekah - 08/07/2011 05:52:54 PM 623 Views
I don't know about Italy, but it's interesting in France... Legolas - 08/07/2011 07:07:16 PM 624 Views
not exactly snoopcester - 08/07/2011 07:20:58 PM 689 Views
Oh. Oh well, close enough. *NM* Legolas - 08/07/2011 07:51:47 PM 316 Views
Don't make me laugh at your silly sport even more. Tom - 08/07/2011 11:11:55 PM 607 Views
Your choice of words, not mine. Rebekah - 08/07/2011 11:33:42 PM 603 Views

I imagine most people haven't snoopcester - 09/07/2011 03:18:11 PM 737 Views
You're wrong about Georgia, at least. Legolas - 08/07/2011 11:46:13 PM 682 Views
That will change when Russia re-invades. Tom - 09/07/2011 03:23:13 AM 606 Views
Or asking Americans about the metric system *NM* Praziquantel - 08/07/2011 10:28:59 PM 338 Views
Dude, it's the All Blacks. Tim - 08/07/2011 11:59:21 PM 849 Views
The all whats? The what blacks? The what what? *NM* Tom - 09/07/2011 03:21:48 AM 313 Views
Asking a non-Rugby fan about the All Blacks ... Nate - 09/07/2011 12:15:24 AM 532 Views
Bad analogy. Tom - 09/07/2011 03:21:23 AM 772 Views
Actually, it's a pretty good analogy... Legolas - 09/07/2011 09:44:50 AM 631 Views
So you're saying NZ culture is as relentlessly projected as American? Tom - 09/07/2011 03:00:33 PM 766 Views
Obviously not, but then American culture is projected in so many ways. Legolas - 09/07/2011 04:37:27 PM 735 Views

I missed two, so you can only have Colonel Knowledge of me. Joel - 08/07/2011 04:45:49 PM 612 Views
7/10, missed 2, 3 and 4. Number 6 was a lucky guess and I've no idea how I knew Motown *NM* kHz1000 - 08/07/2011 04:56:14 PM 304 Views
All of them. Although Motown was a guess and I tossed a coin for souvlaki. *NM* Rebekah - 08/07/2011 05:54:30 PM 313 Views
10, although I didn't actually expect my guess for #2 to be correct... *NM* Legolas - 08/07/2011 07:52:27 PM 263 Views
8/10 – answers typed before looking. Tim - 08/07/2011 11:57:17 PM 582 Views
