The average person only gets 7 right. This is based on U.S. & CDN info, so use all of the lobes of your brain. This can be more difficult than it looks - it just shows how little most of us really see! There are 27 questions about things we see every day or have known about all our lives. How many can you get right? These little simple questions are harder than you think-- it just shows you how little we pay attention to the common place things of life.

15 But how the hell am I supposed to know anything about the statue of liberty or what's on american money or what stripe comes first on the american flag. And for the record the standard stop light goes from left to right not up and down, I've seen many merry-go-rounds turn clockwise and as a small piece of trivia, water doesn't drain counter clockwise south of the equator.

22.

And 10 is a trick question: water goes down in the direction based on placement of the spigot over the drain and of the design of the bowl. The myth that it is decided upon by hemisphere is just that, a myth. There isn't enough curvature at play to dictate all bowls everywhere. If the water enters the bowl with force from the left, it'll go one way. An identically shaped bowl, but with water jetting from the right would go the other.

This is only true in regards to synoptic-scale conditions, not in just your bathroom. For example: would it be less so at 1 degree north or south? Or how about on the equator?
