Well, I hate to brag, but I only "missed" the venetian blind question...and I'm filing a formal protest over THAT one!
All the controls on MY venetian blinds are on the RIGHT!!!
(which reminds me...How do you make a venetian blind?.....poke him in the eye!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Reminds me of that old standby you can use when somebody complains about their brakes being bad(like on an old single-shoe unit)..."Eeh! Those things just slow ya down!"

I thought those were called mini-blinds!!! (still would have gotten it wrong)
Remember guys, stop signs with white trim are optional.

WAIT A MINUTE, BILL!!! You're tellin' me you got that darn venetian blind question "RIGHT"???(notice the quotation marks on that word, dude) Come on!!! Any right thinkin' AMERICAN knows the controls on those suckers are supposed to be on the RIGHT SIDE!!! As of course compared to those blokes over there across The Pond, where stuff is on the left or "wrong" side!  (and now that I think about it, you know that one question about the "coloUrs" on the Campbell soup can...that was colors with that superfluous british "U"...well...this quiz HAD TO have originated over there...hence my getting that venetian blind question SUPPOSEDLY "wrong"!!!)

Well, I will confess to taking a calculated guess at the soup can colors.
I knew the venetian blind thing because my wife is wrong handed and it came up in conversation once about advantages of wrong-handedness.

18.  Apparently I need to drink less scotch and pay more attention to mundane crap around me. Or maybe not.

No, no, no.
You need to drink more Scotch. The rest is just trivial.

Dont think it was supposed to difficult as compared to SAT's or ACT's. Just random questions to things people dont pay much attention to.

Yep Erwin...hence my new tag line I done thought up about a week or so ago....
"There is a 99% probability that there is a direct correlation between one's "luck" and their powers of observation."
(though I readily admit that there is a great possibility someone far more observant than I must have said this very thing, or something close to it, since Man started putting pen to paper a few millenniums ago)
