Me too. Could have had a slightly higher score, but overthought a couple of them and ended up talking myself out of the correct answer. Actually balances out as there were a couple of others that I didn't have a clue about and flat-out guessed with hit-or-miss results. Fun game though.

I got 18, which I thought was OK given I don't live in America.
Some points (Spoiler alert for those who haven't seen the quiz):

-The number of VHF channels is not standard across the globe. I find it a little disconcerting that I got this question correct when Australia has more channels assigned to the VHF frequency.
-I'm assuming by pack of matches they mean a book. If I found that many matches in a standard box I'd be asking where the other 30 are.
-As a world leader in science and technology, why hasn't the USA manged to develop left-side control and right-side control Venetian blinds?

Exactly what I was thinking! I lived in the states but I was just a kid/teenager, so didn't pay attention to those things. One of the other ones that stumped me was the campell soup. I haven't seen a can of it in 9 years, how the heck am I supposed to remember the colors?? Also, I think that in Europe most blouses (and pants) have buttons on the other side... Still fun though, although some of my answers were (correct) wild guesses!
