8/11.

Some of them are kinda easy to figure out. For example the inuit
question, the answer is obviously to burp because "civilized" people
will think that's indecent. But yeah, it was cool.

I also got a mere 6/11. Considering I'm Scottish and yet managed to get
the Scotland one wrong (dinner has always been your evening meal where
I come from!) I can't say I took my poor score too much to heart :smile:

7/11

that test wasn't very good imo. Most of the questions I missed were trick questions, like the Dinner = lunch thing...

Then other stuff was obscure, though they were interesting facts 99% of people would never run into problems. I mean, if I didn't know dinner was called supper in Scotland, I doubt they would think I was rude.

Something I learned in China though, never fill your own glass! If you in a resturant that is the waiter's job (infact we were in a place that had cute girls in mini skirts who's only job was to cap off our beer) and if its a private dinner, everyone is responsible for filling their mates drinks.

ORPH YOU HOOLIGAN! THAT PICTURE IS 79kbs!

8/11

Got the French one wrong, because its a load of crap and wasn't put in the correct context, the Scottish one because its not 100% true, and the Polish one because I didn't have a clue about some old Wives tale!

Obviously not made by someone in the UK...

That left-handed fork question was so dumb, complete guesswork.

That had a strange resemblance to the HSBC ads on TV.

Its nice to know these cultural differences instead of finding out the hard way i guess.

Not very worldly, apparently...even though I've been to Peru, Argentina, Canada, and numerous otrher places.

And that quiz is a hack. I have been to Japan and stayed with a Japanese family (who spoke about 3 words in English)...they did not slurp their noodles, and I think I woulda been slapped if I did.
