	you need to add an 'r' to aston maRtin, and the war of 1812 was also between the british and the americans. but i have to admit, i lol'd at the montana question

	AntieAnnie:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 03:59 GMT	6 points
	I was going to say that Aston Martin is misspelled. Also, I think... that 2 didn't work for the number of feet on my body.

Comment below threshold: show it

	Laura :	Jan 14th, 2010 at 04:21 GMT	5 points
	Good quiz but acouple missteps. I had problems with the same two above and also Elvis. I couldn't get that answer to come up. Also, please accept CCR and I don't know about the famous dog question because Lassie was the one that came to my mind.

	gartland:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 04:29 GMT	1 point
	snoopy came to mine.. some opinionative questions.. also maybe accept CCR for creedence clearwater revival, and kent state for ohio

	ImaLetUFnsh:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 04:39 GMT	17 points
	I find it ironic that you say "for those who don't understand abbreviations", then proceed to misspell the very word you're trying to abbreviate.

	Perplexity:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 04:56 GMT	17 points
	You don't have to be an American to know what comes after 23, or how many feet you have, or how many seconds there are in a minute...some of these questions just don't fit here.

	smellyrebel:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 05:00 GMT	4 points
	really, scooby doo is more famous than lassie? and the CCR and aston martin thing.

	the_hamburglar:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 05:02 GMT	3 points
	For feet on body I typed "2" and "two" and it didn't accept the answers. Do you have one letter answers selected? Also "Elvis" should be accepted for Elvis Presley

	JohnJF:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 05:03 GMT	27 points
	The fact that Sarah Palin is your favorite politician has to be the least surprising fact ever.

	stfox:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 05:06 GMT	4 points
	I disagree with Scooby Doo.. I tried Lassie and that didn't work, I typed in 2 for feet on a body, and that wasn't accepted either. So I got frustrated and quit this quiz!

	DroppedAtBirth:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 05:17 GMT	9 points
	amplitude modulation for AM?

	FriedSeabass:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 05:55 GMT	16 points
	...James Bond is British. Not sure how his car is relevant.

	montylaw:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 06:38 GMT	2 points
	Knew more of these than I could type in time. Had to press the spacebar after entering 2 for the number of feet question. Agree that Lassie should be the answer, not Scooby Doo.

	statephone:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 06:45 GMT	6 points
	i was reading these questions, and i began to think "i think this person has some sort of conservative agenda". then favorite politician came and i thought "hmmm...sarah palin?" yup. Many of these "facts" are just things you insist to be true. Plus the many misspellings and such. I am not connecting dots between a transparent conservative agenda, rigid thinking and poor spelling, but i am pointing out that the creator of this quiz revealed much about his or herself long before i got to the sarah palin question.

	crs002:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 06:50 GMT	13 points
	"most famous dog ever" is an opinion and inappropriate for a question; AM is an abbreviation in more than one realm, as mentioned above; Hershey is not a town, it is a CDP (or a census-designated place) within Derry Township; the colors of the flag come up just by typing "red"; Canada is north and Mexico is south, above and below do not apply to maps as north is only toward the top in maps produced in the Northern Hemisphere; the city's name is Washington and that should be accepted; "EVERY CAR COMPANY IN AMERICA" is a waste of a question; "AM" triggers the 5:00 AM answer; the War of 1812 was also with the British, as mentioned above; Elvis should be acceptable, as he was commonly known by solely his first name; even though you'll get little argument about the Big Mac, it is still an opinion; walking like oompa loompas is hardly a clue for anything.

	nut:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 07:02 GMT	7 points
	the palin thing was probably a joke, but since none of your other joke answers were funny i doubt you were doing it on purpose there

	Nobbe:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 10:01 GMT	5 points
	James Bond also drove BMWs as a "company car".

	cindy_lou35:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 10:40 GMT	5 points
	Dude, fix all your mistakes seriously

	MeltedMan:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 12:25 GMT	5 points
	I quit after seeing the "death panel" remark. How can I have any respect for someone that adopts a right wingnut talking point. The corporate media have infected too many in this country. You really should do a little research and determine which party is the champion of human rights. But then again, doesnt appear much research went into this quiz at all.

	rockgolf:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 12:53 GMT	9 points
	@jlev: Pssst! Hey, that band that sang "The Weight", "Up On Cripple Creek" & "Life Is A Carnival"? The Band? They're 80% Canadian.

	scottcmu:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 12:57 GMT	6 points
	AM and PM are also spelled "Ante Meridian" and "Prime Meridian." Overall, terrible quiz.

	rockgolf:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 12:58 GMT	5 points
	Oh and that song "Tin soldiers and Nixon coming"? Written by Neil Young. Canadian. We really are "the country above you". Socialized medicine and never had a death panel.

	Lenard:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 13:13 GMT	4 points
	Well rockgolf, Canada hasn't apologized for Brian Adams. But thanks for Rush. haha.

	rockgolf:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 13:38 GMT	1 point
	@Lenard: Regarding Bryan Adams, do I have to say the words?

	stickyfingers:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 13:42 GMT	11 points
	horrible quiz, fail. and i know this is nit-picky but it hasnt been mentioned: ford is still profitable and didnt take any bailout money. therefore, not every (big) car company in america is doing very poorly.

	meikamo:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 14:21 GMT	3 points
	i stopped when i entered "palin" for the 4th answer. the other 46 questions i'll likely never read.

	meikamo:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 14:22 GMT	2 points
	Also, do we really need troll quizzes on sporcle?

	chazzykc:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 14:40 GMT	3 points
	Hate to tell you this.....Dodge is not a car company. It is a division of Chrysler.....and unless you are one in a million you have only 8 fingers along with those rather convenient 2 thumbs.

	NCBerge:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 14:51 GMT	4 points
	James Bond drives multiple cars, essentially whichever company will pay him. Many companies have bought their own towns over the year. Unfortunately, Hershey is not one of those places, as the "town" (not really a town), voluntarily renamed themselves. Lastly, every American knows that Michael Jordan comes after #23. This can be an alright quiz if you correct the dozen or so errors people have pointed out. As it stands, this is terrible.

	vince:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:04 GMT	6 points
	I guess the war of 1812 doesn't count?

	Verna:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:07 GMT	3 points
	home of the whopper?

	WindSword:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:33 GMT	3 points
	Not accepting "Elvis" is pretty dumb. @statephone- I don't see how you picked up a conservative agenda BEFORE the infamous question. It seems to be the only that one question.

	DirtyKash:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:34 GMT	2 points
	"Whose face", not "Who's face"

	chrispaz:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:39 GMT	2 points
	It's all been said....

	antiomi:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:45 GMT	0 points
	Mexico is not "below" our country, it is South of our country. Below our country is underground. South is not inherently "down" Other than that, it's all been said (especially about Dodge and Palin)

	imclala:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 15:57 GMT	2 points
	Seriously, I tried Lassie, Toto, Goofy, and Pluto before giving up. Scooby Doo may be your favorite dog, but he is not by any means the most famous. Everything else has been said already.

	JohnJF:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 16:05 GMT	6 points
	It really is a shame that there are dozens of rather well-made quizzes that came out in the last day that are not getting the plays they deserve because this imbecile is getting over a thousand plays.

	Steesh:	Jan 14th, 2010 at 16:11 GMT	1 point
	Hehe I really looked forward to the comments here. Rightly slated too. Though the maker doesn't state that the answers have to be exclusive to the USA I still dispute the inclusion of a James Bond question. British agent and British car, perhaps one us Brits should know but no reason for Americans to know it.
